You don't need to be a well-known person or have an exorbitant inheritance for a hacker to crave your information.
Unfortunately, everyone has someone who would do anything to get the information off their personal devices. This can easily be accomplished when your wireless network is not protected.
Wifi protection means prioritizing what happens to your Wifi, and keeping track of devices that have connected without your consent will save you a lot of hassle.
This way, you can disconnect these devices and lock them into your security settings. Don't leave your Internet access free and use a complex password, so you can keep those who want to hack into your Wifi away.
