  • Page 22: Precaution For Data And Wireless Lan Security

    1. Precaution for Data and Wireless LAN Security For data corruption ● If the product is turns off or disconnects during data communication, a communication error may occur and cause data corruption. Security notes on wireless LAN products Wireless LAN has the advantage of a LAN connection without the use of Ethernet cables if the device is placed within the reach of radio signals. Information can be exchanged between devices that use radio waves such as computer and the wireless LAN access point (base unit). On the other hand, the following problems may be encountered if settings related to security are incomplete because the radio signals reach beyond all obstacles such as walls if within a certain range. ● Interception of information Some malicious computer users may intercept radio signals intentionally to discover IDs, passwords, credit card numbers, emails, etc. ● Unauthorized intrusion Some malicious computer users may access personal or office networks to gain personal or confidential information and send out false data. Also, they may intercept communication content, rewrite it, and then send it out. Furthermore, they may send out computer viruses to destroy data and systems. Wireless LAN products already have security systems so there is a low probability that any of the above problems will occur if this product is used with these settings. 21 of 47...
  • Page 23 Be fully aware of problems which may happen if security configuration is not done properly. We recommend that this product be used only after making the security setting deemed to be necessary based on a proper understanding of the problems which may occur if security settings are not configured. We, NEC Platforms, Ltd., do not take responsibility for any damage caused by a security problem occurring because of a lack of a security measure or an unavoidable issue with the wireless LAN specifications. 22 of 47...
