The NSA Would Like You To Secure Your Router (Bonus Mini Update)
The NSA issued a warning today: reboot your router weekly, change default passwords, update firmware, replace end-of-life hardware.
Good advice. Genuinely. Do those things.
Also: the same federal government that issued this warning is the one that banned new foreign router models in March, has yet to approve a single domestic replacement, and will legally prohibit firmware updates on the router sitting in your home starting March 2027.
I wrote about where this is heading a few weeks ago.
Make of that what you will.
