Get more security from your broadband connection

Why have a network that everyone in the neighborhood can use without your knowing? nTelos sets up your wireless home network with authorized access for you and your family. You control your network users via an nTelos-provided gateway router.

With no wireless security activated on your home network, data can be intercepted with little difficulty, and the home network and Internet connection are open to intrusion. Many people are not aware of their vulnerability. They run the risk of identities being stolen, bank accounts being cleaned out by hackers, computers being hijacked, precious data being deleted or stolen. Computer criminals count on people using weak security, and target these openings. There are financial as well as malicious motives for computer attacks. Some examples of security problems are:

  • Snooping: reading private mail and other personal files.
  • Pranks: practical jokes, sending spam using your address, breaking in just because it’s a challenge.
  • Destroying or corrupting computer data: making files unusable, or making a PC unusable.
  • Bandwidth shortages: hogging your bandwidth and slowing your connection.
  • Abuse by malicious users: engaging in illegal activity that will be traced to you.
  • Direct attack on your computer: accessing files on your computer, installing spyware and other malicious programs, or taking control of your computer.
  • Stealing computer data: taking credit card numbers, email addresses, passwords and other personal information.

The Solution:

It’s a lot easier to secure your computer system, rather than trying to recover from an attack! nTelos Home Solutions employs a multi-level defense to protect your home network.
  • Wi-Fi Protected Access™ 2 (WPA2) encryption, which is the strongest encryption method available on wireless home networks today. Encryption technology scrambles messages sent over wireless networks so they can’t be easily read by unauthorized users. WPA2 protects your data and privacy with up to 256-bit industrial-strength encryption.
  • A powerful Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) Firewall and Internet Policy to protect your PCs against intruders and • most known Internet attacks. It also supports VPN pass-through, and can be configured to filter internal users’ access to the Internet.

Please note that enacting wireless encryption is only part of a complete solution, which should include anti-virus/spam software loaded on your PC. Wireless security is like the fence around your yard – it deters unwanted intruders, but you still need to lock your windows and doors for greatest security. Similarly, wireless security will protect you from intruders entering your PC via your wireless network, but security software will protect you from malicious email and Internet sites.
