While Wi-Fi hacking isn’t as common as ransomware or other types of social engineering attacks, it’s still a significant threat.įor example, a hacker exploited an unprotected router to steal the data of 50 million T-Mobile customers.

Hackers can hack your router, spy on your Wi-Fi connection and even eavesdrop on your conversations to steal personal information such as credit card details, passwords to your social media accounts, and even compromise your online banking apps. Whether you’re working remotely from a coffee shop, checking email from an airport lounge, or streaming Netflix from home - your Wi-Fi connection (yes, even your home network) may be vulnerable to attacks from cybercriminals.
