The Importance of Encryption

Encryption is the process of converting information that is passed between wirelessly connected devices into a secret code, particularly to prevent unauthorized access. Encryption is more critical than ever as IoT devices continue to populate our homes and communicate with each other over the internet.

Unfortunately, many DIY wireless security systems are unencrypted. Even those that claim to be sophisticated are often just a $10 hack away from invasion.

What’s more, the radio frequency on which your wireless security system operates is also unencrypted. As a result, highly skilled criminals may attempt to jam the radio frequency in order to disrupt the vital communication that your sensors send to your alarm system when they detect an intrusion. If the criminal succeeds, your triggered alarms will not go off when a break-in occurs.
