                            Anyone who has Wi-Fi at home should read this article. An unimaginable true event. Taking a sip of hot tea brought by Madhavi, Vijay opened the latest newspaper. There was no rush to go to the office as it was Sunday. Madhavi was chopping onions for pohya in the kitchen. Vijay is a big government official. Retirement was two years away. Madhavi is a housewife, but since her daughter Janhvi has been married for over a year in the US and her son Nikhil has moved to Bangalore for work, she has been devoting most of her time to social work for an organization. 

                            Vijay turned the page and the doorbell rang. He got up and opened the door. Three people were standing in the doorway. "Who do you want?" Vijay asked, "I am Inspector Shinde, this is our Cyber ​​Crime Cell Officer Dixit and this is Havaldar Kadam." Inspector Shinde pointed at both of them. "What happened, Inspector?" Vijay asked with a questioning face. Evanna Madhavi had come out. "You have to come with us to the police station for questioning." Said the inspector. "Why? What happened?" Vijay asked. "A debit card of a Delhi merchant has been misused to make online purchases from some foreign shopping sites worth about Rs 4.5 lakh." The inspector informed. "But what has this got to do with me?" Vijay didn't know why the inspector was telling him all this. Both Vijay and Madhavi were looking at the three of them with confused faces. "You have to come for interrogation as it uses your Wi-Fi network. And since this area comes under the jurisdiction of our police station, the Delhi Police has classified this complaint to us." Dixit added the book. The ground beneath the feet of both Vijay and Madhavi seemed to slide. They did not know what to do, what to react to. At the same time, Vijay reassured Madhavi and said, "I will go and see what has happened. Don't worry." And he went out with the three of them. In a short time, Inspector Shinde and Cyber ​​Cell Officer Dixit were victorious. According to Dixit, the purchase was made online from five or six foreign shopping sites at around 1.30 pm on Friday night, using his WiFi network, using Delhi's Alok Sharma's business debit card. Since the WiFi network was in his name, he was morally responsible for it. "How is this possible? We have only me and my wife in our house and we would have gone to bed at midnight. No one came to us that day, then ..." "Mr. Vijay Joshi ..." Dixit said breaking him in the middle, "We know this is not your job." Dixit then explained in detail that Vijay would know all this. This type is called war driving. In this, cyber criminals go out at night in a car or any vehicle. Carry a laptop or any smart device with you. It is equipped with software like AirCrack and wireless adapter to crack WiFi passwords. Once the WiFi network of Strong Signal is found and its password is cracked, it becomes available to use the WiFi network. They are used to carry out cyber criminal activities. These criminals use a special type of browser to prevent their own traces so they are not easily caught. However, anyone with a Wi-Fi network can be in trouble. This is exactly what happened in Vijay's case. This was due to the lack of a strong password and a very secure WiFi network. When there was nothing wrong with the poor man, he was killed unnecessarily. The slightest indifference had come to their fingertips. The trial lasted two months. Vijay was not found guilty of misusing a debit card but had to pay a large fine for irresponsible use of the WiFi network. Meanwhile, he was suspended for a few days. Friends, if most of you are using WiFi network at home, then you must follow some rules, tell your WiFi network service engineer to use WPA encryption. Enter a strong password.

You can also set up laptops, smart devices that can only use your WiFi network at home, and WiFi networks will not accept unfamiliar devices. So stay tuned and enjoy the technology. Poetry giver.
