With the rise of smart home devices and remote work, home networks are becoming prime targets for cybercriminals. Jennifer Minella, a cybersecurity expert, stressed the need for improved home network security at the RSAC 2025 Conference, citing incidents like the 2022 LastPass breach that compromised corporate security through home networks. She categorized home tech users into three groupsâlow-tech lifers, DIY home admins, and hardened defendersâeach with different security needs and strategies to mitigate risks. Her insights aim to empower users to protect themselves and their networks effectively.
"All of us, working from wherever we're working from, but particularly in our home networks, are becoming targets," warns Jennifer Minella, highlighting the security risks of remote work.
Minella emphasized the importance of tailored security solutions for different types of home users, ranging from low-tech lifers to hardened defenders, to counteract cyber threats.
