Your Wi-Fi network can be a weak spot in your defences if it isn’t secured properly. Hackers know that many small businesses leave routers with default passwords or outdated settings, making them easy entry points.
The first line of defence is WPA3 encryption. Combined with strong, unique passwords and network segmentation for guests, this makes your system much harder to breach. Business-grade systems also allow you to limit access, so only approved devices connect.
Technology alone isn’t enough. Monitoring tools help detect suspicious activity, like unknown devices or traffic spikes, before they cause damage. Staff training is equally important—teaching employees not to use public Wi-Fi for sensitive work and how to recognise phishing attacks.
The cost of an attack—lost data, downtime, and reputational damage—far exceeds the investment in proper wireless security. Protecting your network protects your business.
