The Risks Posed by Home Routers - Cyber Tip Tuesday video
Welcome to this week's Black Arrow Cyber Tip Tuesday, this week James is talking about the security of home routers. A recent study in Germany of 127 home routers from 7 different brands including D-Link, Linksys, TP-Link and Zyxel found that almost 60 percent of models hadn't had a security update in over a year and most were affected by hundreds of known vulnerabilities. On top of that, they found that vendors were shipping updates with no fixes for critical vulnerabilities that have been known about for many years, some are even observed as being actively exploited. Most routers are based on a Linux operating system which is patched and maintained regularly but the home router manufacturers are choosing to use old and known vulnerable versions of the operating system without sending updates to customers devices.
