Security Precautions
Since wireless LAN uses radio waves to transmit signals, tighter security
precautions are necessary than when using a LAN cable.
When using wireless LAN, keep the following points in mind.
•
Only use networks you are authorized to use.
This product searches for wireless LAN networks in the vicinity and
displays the results on the screen. Networks you are not authorized to
use (unknown networks) may also be displayed. However, connecting to
or attempting to use those networks could be regarded as unauthorized
access. Be sure to use only networks you are authorized to use, and do
not attempt to connect to other unknown networks.
If security settings have not been properly set, the following problems may
occur.
•
Transmission monitoring
Third parties with malicious intent may monitor wireless LAN
transmissions and attempt to acquire the data you are sending.
•
Unauthorized network access
Third parties with malicious intent may gain unauthorized access to
the network you are using and steal, modify, or destroy information.
Additionally, you could fall victim to other types of unauthorized access
such as impersonation (where someone assumes an identity to gain
access to unauthorized information) and springboard attacks (where
someone gains unauthorized access to your network as a springboard to
cover their tracks when infiltrating other systems).
To prevent these types of problems from occurring, be sure to thoroughly
secure your wireless LAN network.
Be sure to use the wireless LAN function of this camera with a proper
understanding of wireless LAN security, and balance risk and convenience
when adjusting security settings.
