Network security tips to protect privacy from infringement

1. Use strong passwords. A strong enough password can make brute force cracking impossible. Conversely, if the password is not strong enough, it will almost certainly damage your system.

2. Control the MAC address. Hiding the service set identifier of the wireless network and restricting the access of the media access control (MAC) address to the network can ensure that the network will not be harassed by primary malicious attackers.

3. Turn off the network when it is not in use. The adoption of this recommendation depends on the specific circumstances of the network. If you do not need to use the Internet 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, you can use this measure. After all, when the network is shut down, the security is the highest, no one can connect to the non-existent network.

4. Close the wireless network interface. If you use a mobile terminal such as a laptop, the wireless network interface should be turned off by default. Only when it is really necessary to connect to a wireless network, the related functions are turned on. For the rest of the time, the closed wireless network interface will keep you from being the target of malicious attacks.

5. Ensure the core safety. Before you leave, make sure that the wireless router or the laptop connected to the wireless network is running an effective firewall.

6. Be sure to turn off unnecessary services, especially those that are not needed under the Microsoft Windows operating system. In order to ensure the normal operation of the network operating system, the network administrator should control the configuration of the network system and the configuration parameter changes at any time during the network operation, and back up the configuration parameters. Network administrators should also dynamically adjust system configuration parameters and optimize system performance as the system environment changes, business development needs, and user needs.
