A Note About Wireless Security
Wireless networks are convenient and easy to install, so small businesses with
high-speed Internet access are adopting them at a rapid pace. Because wireless
networking operates by sending information over radio waves, it can be more
vulnerable to intruders than a traditional wired network. Like signals from your
cellular or cordless phones, signals from your wireless network can also be
intercepted. The following information will help you to improve your security:
