Have you ever wondered how networks started? We’re surrounded by networks, whether they’re computer networks, networks of roads, or the network of telephones that allow us to communicate every day.
Computer networks are at the core of our everyday lives. While any wireless technology is often referred to as wireless, and most networked ones as simply a network, there are multiple different technologies, protocols, and configurations to be done to properly set up a network at home, or in an office.
Today’s computing devices are always connected to a network. While increasing productivity, this also increases the risk of malicious activity.
