| WIFI hacks?
"Digital intruders are piercing defenseless air space at corporations, public Wi-Fi hot spots and homes to gain illegal entry to computers. About 90% of mobile devices lack protection, says market researcher Gartner."
There is no piercing if the wifi is open. I love the use of words. Defenseless means anyone can go in. Hacking know-how? Please, it you know how DHCP works, it doesn't require hacking know how. DHCP is wifi's worse enemy. If wifi is open, you should be using a firewall to began with. Trusted network computing is not your friend. What open wifi is to criminals, is the same as fishermen fishing in a large clear water glass aquariam.
It's easy pickings for criminals, they can see their prey sitting a few feet away. Instead of sitting at home. Open wifi coffee shops are hunting grounds for sharks. A pack of sheep with no guards.
You need a shepard with dogs to keep the wolves away.
Some people are always the sheep.
