Scared about Wireless Security

In today's world of drive-by hackers, it's more important then ever to combine all the available tools to secure your wireless home/office network, Web Choice Online Pty Ltd always takes necessary steps to secure our clients' networks. Following are few measurements we take to secure your wireless network;

	Depending on the level of confidentiality, by always password protecting anything that is shared using an archive tool.
	Implementing the WEP authentication method, every so often changing your WEP keys and making them as difficult as possible.
	Securing your wireless access point with a strong password; not just leaving the default one in place like others.
	Disabling access point administration via wireless clients. This means that any changes to the access point configuration would have to be done from a machine attached to the wired network.
	Using MAC address filtering as an added means of security.
	Changing the default SSID to something that is understandable to you but not to outsiders. This will make it slightly more difficult for people to connect to your network.
	Disabling SSID broadcasting (on request). This feature is meant to make it easier for clients to connect to the network because the network name can be automatically discovered by the client operating system. This means anyone in range of your access point will automatically know your network exists.
	Using a highly secured WPA pass phrase.
