Protecting Your Home Network from Digital Threats

Specific Risks Facing Home Networks
- Risks from Children Downloading Games:
- Children, eager to download new games or content, might inadvertently install software that includes malware or opens backdoors that cybercriminals can exploit. Such actions can compromise your entire home network, leading to data loss or unauthorized access to sensitive information.
- Emails from Unfamiliar Sources:
- Adults in the household may receive phishing emails that appear to be from legitimate sources. These emails often encourage the recipient to click on malicious links or download infected attachments, which can lead to significant security breaches, including financial theft and identity fraud.
- IoT Device Vulnerabilities:
- IoT devices, such as smart thermostats, lighting systems, and security cameras, enhance home convenience and efficiency. However, they can also pose significant risks if not properly secured. These devices often come with default passwords that are easily hackable or may not have the capability to be updated to patch security flaws, leaving your network open to attacks.
