Home networking has come a long way since we posted our first
networking article over 5 years ago. At the time, the features were
still extremely limited and anybody who could get simultaneous
internet access to work by means of proxies like Wingate or Sygate
was already considered one of the "illuminati". Security features
sounded like a foreign language that nobody had any clue about but
then, they were not really necessary since almost everybody was still
on dial-up.
With improving infrastructure of the internet, and broadband access
becoming widely available, this safety of remote accesses quickly
turned into a quagmire. Hack attacks as originally performed almost
exclusively by those who just tried hacking for the hack of it has
developed into some very serious business and, among other things has
superseded narcotics as the number one source of income of organized
crime.
