Your Wi-Fi network might be the weakest link in your business security. Here’s how to lock it down and protect customer data, devices, and your reputation.
1. Use a Business-Grade Firewall
Consumer routers don’t cut it. Use a commercial firewall with intrusion prevention, VPN, and regular firmware updates.
2. Separate Guest Wi-Fi
Never let guests or customers share your internal network. Set up a separate VLAN or guest SSID with limited access.
3. Enforce Strong Wi-Fi Passwords
No “CompanyName123.” Use complex, regularly rotated passphrases—and don’t post them on the wall.
4. Monitor Network Traffic
Know what devices are connected and what they’re doing. Real-time monitoring can detect rogue devices or malware activity fast.
