Abstract

There are several weaknesses that make home wireless networks prone to unauthorized access. The weaknesses include misconfiguration, use of default settings, and many others as a result of general lack of user education. This paper proposes a framework for educating home wireless users. It examines the nature of education frameworks and suggests a structural guide for effective education that could be used by information technology trainers and consultants.
