Security notes on wireless LAN products
Wireless LAN has the advantage of a LAN connection without the use of
Ethernet cables if the device is placed within the reach of radio waves. You
can transmit and receive information between devices that use radio waves
such as a computer and the wireless LAN access point (base unit). On the
other hand, you may encounter the following problems if you do not
complete the settings related to security because the radio waves reach
beyond all obstacles such as walls if within a certain range.
x Interception of information:
Some malicious computer users may intercept radio waves intentionally
to discover your IDs, passwords, credit card numbers, e-mails, etc.
x Unauthorized intrusion:
Some malicious computer users may access personal or office networks
to gain personal or confidential information and send out false data. Also,
they may intercept communication content, rewrite it, and then send it
out. Furthermore, they may send out computer viruses to destroy data
and systems.
Wireless LAN products already have security systems so there is a low
probability that any of the above problems will occur if you use this product
with these settings.
