Improper intrusions
Malicious third parties may without permission access the personal or company network
and steal personal or confidential information, pretend to be someone else and leak incorrect
information, rewrite information that has been intercepted, introduce computer viruses or
otherwise damage data or the system, etc.
Wireless LAN cards and wireless access points generally include security measures for dealing
with these problems. Making the proper security settings before using the products can reduce
the risk of such problems arising.
We recommend that you fully understand the problems that can arise when using the products
without making the security settings, then that you make the security settings based on your
own decision and at your own discretion.
