1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:06,600
it seems like not too long ago that stealing things from the airwaves just

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:11,920
meant recording radio broadcasts of songs about Barbie girls and wanting it

3
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:17,400
that way onto bootleg cassette tapes but now with details of our personal lives

4
00:00:14,599 --> 00:00:22,720
and billions of dollars worth of transactions constantly being beamed

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:25,279
around over Wi-Fi securing all of this

6
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:31,840
stuff has become a huge priority for more than just Nick Carter well yeah

7
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:34,600
lius uh that's what those passwords that

8
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:38,079
uh clever people put in place over their wireless networks to keep unwanted

9
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:43,160
Intruders from accessing computers and files on the networker for if you got

10
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:45,399
one of those you're safe smart guy

11
00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:51,120
actually you're partly right password protection on your Wi-Fi hotspot is a

12
00:00:48,160 --> 00:00:55,879
must these days with some places even holding the internet connection owner

13
00:00:53,559 --> 00:01:01,000
liable for cyber crimes committed through their unsecured access point but

14
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:07,200
that's also a gross over simp ification not all passwords are created equal back

15
00:01:04,479 --> 00:01:13,600
in the early 2000s nearly all routers shipped with a default security scheme

16
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:15,200
called we or wired equivalency privacy

17
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:21,320
and although it was incredibly widespread thanks to us laws restricting

18
00:01:18,439 --> 00:01:25,000
the export of cryptographic technology and some short-sighted exploits that

19
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:30,360
allowed Brute Force attacks to defeat it quite easily as computing power

20
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:32,439
increased it was also incredibly weak if

21
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:37,880
you're still using web it's better than nothing but know that it can be broken

22
00:01:34,759 --> 00:01:40,399
in minutes using free software so this

23
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:45,880
led to the development of WPA which introduced much longer encryption keys

24
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:48,399
and tkip or temporal key Integrity

25
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:53,479
protocol which protected against altered or forged packets and used constantly

26
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:58,799
changing keys to dramatically improve the security of the web standard but it

27
00:01:56,399 --> 00:02:03,600
was merely a temporary solution since the convenience and cost Savings of

28
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:09,759
being able to implement it with a firmware update on existing Hardware

29
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:11,640
came at a cost it reused some parts of

30
00:02:09,759 --> 00:02:16,920
web making it highly vulnerable to breach by today's standards and not only

31
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:21,760
that but device intercompatibility sucks the big one which leads us to Modern

32
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:26,480
wireless encryption the one you should be using unless you have some older

33
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:30,120
devices that only support WPA although given that WPA 2 support has been

34
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:33,720
mandatory on any device with a Wi-Fi since 2006 there's really not much

35
00:02:31,640 --> 00:02:39,159
excuse for not swapping out that pocket PC for an iPad or something at this

36
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:42,519
point but what does WPA 2 bring to the

37
00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:45,080
table most importantly the mandatory use

38
00:02:42,519 --> 00:02:48,720
of the AES or Advanced encryption standard an encryption algorithm so

39
00:02:47,519 --> 00:02:53,560
strong that it would take a modern computer hundreds or even thousands of

40
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:58,519
years to break a 12 character password by brute forcing it which doesn't mean

41
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:02,920
it's bulletproof though you know that one button WI

42
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:07,799
setup thing WPS it's convenient for home use but turn that crank off for your

43
00:03:05,159 --> 00:03:10,840
business Network because someone who has previously had access to the network

44
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:16,760
let's say for example a disgruntled employee Could Break Your WPA 2 Security

45
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:18,640
in a couple of hours and on top of that

46
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:23,799
if you're concerned about your personal data being stolen security comes with

47
00:03:21,799 --> 00:03:27,959
you not just when you're setting up your access point because even the strongest

48
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:32,439
encryption in the world between you and an access point can't protect prot you

49
00:03:30,599 --> 00:03:37,040
if that access point is being operated by someone who wants to get into your

50
00:03:34,439 --> 00:03:41,840
base and kill your dudes or at least steal your banking information beware of

51
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:46,560
public Wi-Fi networks and ensure that whatever you're connecting to belongs to

52
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:52,319
an individual or a business that you trust speaking of trust and being

53
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:54,400
connected on the go fresh books it's

54
00:03:52,319 --> 00:03:58,439
designed for freelance workers or small businesses it's an online tool that's

55
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:03,519
why I said connected and on the go and it makes invoicing getting paid and

56
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:08,159
tracking expenses easier so you just go into it on your mobile device and you're

57
00:04:05,519 --> 00:04:13,680
like yeah I worked these hours I expens the things blippity bloppy send an email

58
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:17,519
with an invoice to your customer and get this you can tell when they've read it

59
00:04:15,799 --> 00:04:22,759
and then they can pay you by credit card so that you are spending your time doing

60
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:27,280
your business instead of playing around with numbers which let's face it are you

61
00:04:24,919 --> 00:04:30,919
that great with numbers anyway I didn't think so I'm sure not so if you're your

62
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:36,240
own boss you should be using stuff that makes you feel like a boss and freshbooks is the easy way to do all

63
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:39,800
your online billing so you have more time to do the work you actually want to

64
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:45,680
be doing head over to freshbooks.com tequi and enter Techquickie and how did

channel super Le fun where we actually

70
00:05:01,919 --> 00:05:08,520
shock each other for no reason actually there's a reason it's for being too slow

71
00:05:06,759 --> 00:05:12,800
I mean what kind of chump is too slow to press the button they should get zapped
