If my router has a firewall, why do I need added security measures? - TechCast Weekly 32


After recovering from the fantastic event that was Big Seminar 9 (WHEW! What a blast!  And make sure you keep an eye out for a new podcast featuring the biggest minds in Internet Marketing, Big Seminar Interviews, coming soon…), this week on the TechCast Weekly Computer Knowledge Podcast I’m talking about the need for added security measures even if your router does have a firewall.

Firewalls are nice for inbound attacks to your computer from the outside world, but what if something attacks from the inside?  Perhaps a virus on a flash drive you brought home from work?  What if someone is trying to get into your wireless network?  Just some things to think about and ways to add more security to your home network. 

As I’ve mentioned in the show, the easiest way I know of to secure your home network plus add tons of other great functionality to your network is by using Network MagicNetwork Magic is simply the BEST tool for configuring your home network, adding security, and even monitoring your family’s internet usage.  Listeners of the TechCast Weekly can pick up a FREE version with our compliments at Network Magic.  You’ll also get access to 30 days worth of the Premium Version features.
