Parents "Bugging" Their Own Homes with Wireless Baby Monitors: Silent Intruders Enter Homes Undetected to Steal Sensitive Information
Wireless baby monitors pose security risk due to a flaw in their design. Most analog and digital wireless baby monitors allow anyone to listen to private conversations. Parents should look for a wireless baby monitor that provides secure communication.
Nashville, TN, May 05, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Why are parents willingly "bugging" their homes with wireless baby monitors so anyone can listen to what's being said?
There is a flaw in most baby monitors that puts families at risk. Imagine what could happen if a "wireless intruder" listened to conversations going on in a families' home. What kind of sensitive information could they be talking about? How might a potential thief, kidnapper, or rapist benefit from knowing their daily routine? This is how many crimes start.
With most of the top selling wireless baby monitors on the market today, parents are essentially leaving a wireless door open to their house. Anyone with a scanner, similar baby monitor, or even a cordless phone can listen to their private conversations.
Most of the department store baby monitors being sold today still use technology that is easy to intercept. Besides being totally insecure, older analog technology is also prone to interference from external sources. Even units that communicate using digital frequencies are not secure if their signals are not scrambled. Most of the popular baby monitor models do not scramble signals.
Parents should look for a wireless baby monitor that provides secure digital communication. If a manufacturer doesn't state their unit is secure, it is most assuredly not since advertising this benefit would help them sell more baby monitors.
