Have you replaced your internet router lately? It’s recommend to replace your home router approximately every 3-4 years because the technology and internet speeds are constantly improving and getting faster and getting more secure.

Also, it’s recommended to login and change your routers default login since the routes all have the same generic manufacturer login. This creates an unsecured environment for your home network already. In addition to that, when have you updated your routers firmware? The firmware updates are extremely critical to keeping your router up to date for the latest security vulnerabilities and operating at its full capacity.

See the new Netgear Nighthawk AX6000 (2500sqft) to Nighthawk AXE11000 Tri-Band WiFi 6E Router (3500sqft). In my opinion the best on market. You can purchase using the “buy” button from Best Buy or use any other retailer.

4 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO KEEP YOURSELF CYBER SAFE

Cyber scams are nothing new. Every day, con artists are looking for the best “marks.”

Think you’re not worth being the target of online predators? Think again!

Hackers don’t need to know how much is in your bank account to want to get into it. Your identity, your financial data, what’s in your email…… it’s all valuable. And cyber criminals will cast as wide a net as possible to get to anyone they can. They’re counting on you thinking you’re not a target.

So how can you reduce the chances of falling for the scams? Learn the signs!

Take critical steps to Update your computers today!!!

UEFI firmware vulnerabilities affect at least 25 computer vendors

Researchers from firmware protection company Binarly have discovered critical vulnerabilities in the UEFI firmware from InsydeH2O used by multiple computer vendors such as Fujitsu, Intel, AMD, Lenovo, Dell, ASUS, HP, Siemens, Microsoft, and Acer.
UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) software is an interface between a device’s firmware and the operating system, which handles the booting process, system diagnostics, and repair functions.
In total, Binarly found 23 flaws in the InsydeH2O UEFI firmware, most of them in the software's System Management Mode (SMM) that provides system-wide functions such as power management and hardware control.
