To secure your home network from external threats, we recommend the following steps:

1. Ensure all devices attached to the network have updated antivirus and malware protection.
2. Enable a firewall on the router or other gateway device.
3. Regularly download security patches for all devices and applications.
4. Restrict access to unknown or suspicious network connections.
5. Periodically change default passwords on the router and other devices.
6. Install a secure Virtual Private Network (VPN) on the router for secure remote access.
7. Ensure all devices connected to the network have the latest firmware.
