Did you know that your work-from-home employees can get hacked through their home router?
Certain routers, like the D-Link EXO AX4800, have a vulnerability that could allow hackers to take control of the device remotely. This is unlikely to be a problem for most businesses since they typically use more robust routers. However, the risk comes in when employees use their own home routers for work.
If an employee's home router is vulnerable, hackers could potentially access your company network through that device. This could be a big security breach!
What can you do? Talk to your employees: Advise them to check their home router model and see if it's known to have vulnerabilities. There are resources online to help them identify their model. Regardless of the router, emphasize strong cybersecurity practices for all employees, like using complex passwords and keeping software updated.
A cybersecurity firm can assess your current work-from-home setup and identify any potential vulnerabilities. If you need help with this, please send us a message and we'd be glad to assist!
