I thought default settings were fine, are they really that insecure?

Wait, locating the router in a communal area? That sounds risky...

Running scripts to check for data breaches sounds good, but I wonder if that’s more of a maintenance task than a direct security measure for the router itself.

Changing the default login details seems like a basic step, but I think it’s crucial for security. I’ve seen similar questions in practice tests.

I feel like using a firewall is important, but I'm not entirely sure if it's enough on its own to secure the router.

I remember we discussed how locating a router in a communal area could actually make it less secure, so I think that's definitely not a good option.

Personally, I'd rather just unplug the whole thing and go back to carrier pigeons. At least they can't be hacked... unless the pigeons are in on it.

Using the firewall? Isn't that what the router's for? Next, they'll be telling us to turn it off and on again to fix everything.

Changing the default login details is a no-brainer. I bet the previous owner still has the password written on a sticky note somewhere.

Putting the router in a communal area? That's just asking for trouble. What's next, posting the login details on the office noticeboard?
