Secure Wireless Access Point Configuration
If Wi-Fi is enabled, a BW RigRat uses a Wi-Fi wireless network to transmit data related to its
current and past activity. To protect these data against unauthorized access, Honeywell
recommends the following when configuring your wireless network:
l
Set a unique network name (SSID). Do not use the default name.
l
Set unique administrative credentials (username and password) that control the
configuration settings of your Access Point / Router / Gateway. Do not use the default
credentials. Use a strong password (see Strong Password Tips).
l
Configure strong authentication and encryption in your network. Honeywell
recommends WPA2 Personal (aka WPA2-PSK) with AES encryption.
l
Create a strong network passphrase (see strong password tips). Do not use the default
passphrase.
l
Maintain the firmware of your Access Point / Router / Gateway as well as the firmware of
all devices connected to the wireless network up to date.
