Cautions concerning security when using wireless LAN products
Wireless LAN connections offer the advantage that because the information is exchanged between the computer, etc., and the wireless LAN access point using radio waves rather than a LAN cable, LAN connections are possible as long as the devices are within the range of the radio waves.
On the other hand, because the radio waves reach all places within their range, even through such obstacles as walls, the problems below may occur if the security settings have not been made.
!Exchanged information may be viewed surreptitiously
Third parties with malicious intents may deliberately intercept the radio waves and surreptitiously view the exchanged information, including ID numbers, passwords, credit card numbers and other personal information or
!Your network may be infiltrated without authorization
Third parties with malicious intents may access your personal or company network without authorization and obtain personal or con- fidential information (leakage of information), impersonate specific persons and release false information (impersonation), rewrite inter- cepted information and issue the rewritten information (falsification) or plant computer viruses, etc., that damage your data or system (vandalism).
Wireless LAN products normally have a security system. Using the product with the security settings activated decreases the above risks.
It is your responsibility to thoroughly understand the risks of using wireless LAN products without security settings and to make the security settings according to your personal judgment.
