Abaduni bezingane bashiya abazali bekhathazeke kakhulu ngokuthi izithombe zezingane zabo ezilele zizowela ezandleni ezingalungile.
Nakuba kungavamile, ukugetshengwa kwe-baby monitor kuyenzeka.
Omama babike ukuthi izingane zabo eziqaphayo 'zithathwa' abagebengu - abakwazile ukukhuluma nokubukela izingane zabo. I I-Australian Cyber Security Center (ACSC) ithi amadivayisi afana neziqaphi zezingane awaklanyelwe kucatshangelwa ukuphepha. Kodwa kunezinyathelo zokusiza ukugcina ingane yakho iqapha iphephile kubaduni.
Okufanele ukwazi mayelana nokugenca kwe-baby monitor
Isikhulu Esiphezulu Sezobuchwepheshe kanye NoMsunguli We-Cynch, u-Adam Selwood utshele i-Grapevine kaMama ukuthi izici zokuphepha ezizenzakalelayo kumaqapha wezingane ze-WiFi ngokuvamile yizona eziyimbangela yokugebenga. "Ukwenza impilo ibe 'lula' kithi njengamakhasimende, amadivaysi ngokuvamile afika nokucupha okuhle okuwenza angabi nalutho ukugetshengwa," kusho u-Adam.
“Eminye imishini isebenza ngokushicilela okuphakelayo komphakathi kwekhamera yakho kuwebhu ukuze uxhumeke kuyo ngohlelo lokusebenza lweselula, kuncane noma kungenalutho okuvimba omunye umuntu ukuthi abuke ukusakaza. Ngisho noma ikhamera yakho iza nezici zokuphepha ezihloniphekile, ubungozi butholwa masonto onke obungavumela umgebenga ukuba afinyelele kuyo uma unganakile.”
Lonke ucezu lobuchwepheshe olusebenzisa i-inthanethi ezindlini zethu lunengozi yokugetshengwa. Futhi abazali kudingeka baqaphele ukuthi ingozi yokugetshengwa ingokoqobo. “Ngaphambi kokufaka i-wifi baby monitor, nanoma iyiphi idivayisi exhunyiwe yalolo daba, ngingakhuthaza abazali ukuthi balindele ukuthi izogqekezwa ngesikhathi esithile futhi bacabangele umonakalo ongawubangela. Ziningi izindaba ezishaqisayo laphaya, futhi kwabanye bethu ngisho nethuba elincane lokuthi into efanayo yenzeke ezinganeni zethu liyodlula noma yiziphi izinzuzo esingazithola.”
Uma uzimisele ukuthatha ubungozi obuncane bokugebenga, kunezindlela ezithile zokusiza ukuqinisa ukuphepha kwengane.
Ungakuvimbela kanjani ukugetshengwa kwe-monitor baby
Ngokuka-Adam Selwood, indawo engcono kakhulu ongaqala ngayo Izincomo ze-ACSC :
Isinyathelo 1:
Yenza umsebenzi wakho wesikole ngaphambi kokuyithenga futhi uqiniseke ukuthi iza nezici ezinhle zokuphepha.
Isinyathelo sesi-2:
Thenga kumthengisi onedumela elihle futhi uhlole ukubuyekezwa okuku-inthanethi.
Isinyathelo sesi-3:
Shiya imonitha yengane ingaxhunyiwe ku-inthanethi noma ku-WiFi yangakini. Mhlawumbe uyibeke kunethiwekhi yesivakashi ukuze uyihlukanise kwamanye amadivaysi endlini yakho.
Isinyathelo sesi-4:
Uyibeka kuphi ikhamera? Ingabe ikhombisa noma ilalela noma yini ongayifuni ku-inthanethi?
Isinyathelo sesi-5:
Uma uyifaka, shintsha iphasiwedi ezenzakalelayo ibe okuthile okuqinile.
Isinyathelo sesi-6:
Hlola izinketho kudivayisi bese uvala noma yini ongayidingi, njengombhobho.
Ukugcina imonitha yengane ivikelekile
Amathiphu okugcina imonitha yezingane ivikelekile kubaduni, uma isimisiwe:
- Izibuyekezo zokuphepha zikhishwa njalo ukuze kuqashwe izingane. Qiniseka ukuthi uyazi ukuthi ungazithola kuphi futhi uzisethe ukuthi zifake ngokuzenzakalelayo uma kungenzeka.
- Vala imonitha yengane uma ingasetshenziswa.
- Buka ukwanda okukhulu ekusebenziseni kwakho i-inthanethi kwanyanga zonke.
- Bhalisa i-monitor yengane, uma kwenzeka kukhona ukukhumbula.
Kubalulekile futhi ukwenza isiqiniseko sokuthi uxhumano lwakho lwe-inthanethi luvikelekile. “Uma ukhathazekile ngothile oseduze nekhaya lakho osebenzisa idivayisi yakho, hlola ukuze ubone ukuthi yona, kanye nenethiwekhi yakho ye-WiFi yasekhaya, isekela izici zakamuva zokuphepha ze-WiFi (WPA2 noma WPA3, Wi-Fi 6, njll.),” Kuchaza u-Adamu. “Kwesinye isikhathi amadivayisi azofaka nenethiwekhi yawo yasendaweni ye-wifi ukukuvumela ukuthi uxhume kuyo ukuze usethe. Uma isivuliwe, bheka ukuze ubone ukuthi ungakwazi yini ukukucisha nalokhu.”
