The most challenging home chore: setting up the home network!

A secure personal network is the first step towards secure computing. But setting, not speaking about securing, a home network is not an easy task.

"The challenge here is that these home networks are maintained by home owners who don't necessarily know a great deal about computer security, nor do they want to." said Jason Hong, an assistant professor in the Human Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University and an expert in the areas of ubiquitous computing and usable privacy and security.
