Router

16. • Closes and locks “open
doors”
• Keeps intruders and
unknowns out
• Allows the recognized
& trusted in
• Not perfect, Cyber-
criminals exploit trusted
doors
• May block desired sites

17.  The First Line of Defense
 “Hides” your network and computers from
being directly accessible on the Internet
 Routers Can Provide Firewall Protection

18. Default Usernames/Passwords for most routers can also be found at:
http://portforward.com/default_username_password

19.  Access Router via your web
browser
 Enter your Routers IP Address
 Enter the default username &
password
 Find administration settings
 Select Change/Reset Password
Tip:To Find IP address go to your PC’s
Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center and click on your network

20.  Rule #1
 Require a password to access your computer
 Why?
 Prevents unauthorized access
 Provides a first line of defense
 Prevents easy access from a
network
TIP: Set up automatic lockout that requires a
password. A good timeout value is 5 to 10 minutes.

21.  Rule #2
 Don’t forget your cell phone
 Use strong passwords –
 >8 characters, letters, numbers and symbols
 Use “coded” phrases (e.g. H@m5t3@k!)
 Don’t store passwords in a file (unencrypted)
 Don’t keep them near the computer
 Use a password vault such as “Lastpass”

22.  Makes files and disks unreadable without the encryption
key
 You can encrypt:
 Hard Drive or USB Drive –Windows BitLocker
Windows 7 upgrade $139,Windows 8.1 included.
Start button>all programs>Windows anytime upgrade
 Individual Files – Axcrypt– Free open source
 Business Email – using a virtual personal network (VPN)
Windows 7 Start button > typeVPN into the program search window
 Protects against theft or loss of a computer

required to protect with encryption includes:
 Medical Data defined by HIPAA
 (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)

 Allows known email
 SPAM Filters aren’t
perfect!
WEB Filters
 Prohibits bad websites
 Pre-examines website
content and warns you
 Catches good websites
 Allows known websites
 Web filters aren’t
perfect!

25. • Anti-Virus & Anti-
Spyware Programs

attachments files, &
downloads

Removes them
• Not perfect, does not
detect everything,
cannot remove all
threats

26. You and your employees are the
last line of defense
After all the layers of protection,
you are the decision maker
DENY !!!
