🔎In the modern world, a secure WiFi network is no longer a luxury — it’s a critical necessity for every business. However, many companies in Albania underestimate the risk that lies behind a poor configuration of their network. Here are 7 mistakes we often encounter in the field and ways you can avoid them.
1. Using the same network for staff and customers
This creates an open path for unauthorized access. Networks should be built separately, with clear priorities.
2. Default or very simple passwords
Is “admin123” still used? This makes devices more vulnerable to automated attacks.
3. Lack of control over new entries
Every new device that connects to the network must be authorized. This isn’t paranoia — it’s good security practice.
4. No VLANs or segmentation are used to separate traffic
When all devices share the same “traffic path,” it’s like leaving the key under the rug for the thief.
5. Lack of configuration backup
In the event of an attack or defect, not having a copy of the router or server configuration can paralyze the network for hours.
6. Failure to audit the network at regular intervals
Changes happen: people leave, equipment changes. A periodic audit reveals precisely these new vulnerabilities that may arise.
7. Lack of real-time logging and monitoring
Without detailed logs, you won’t even know when an attack attempt occurs. Monitoring systems should be part of any serious infrastructure.
