We cannot live without air, water, and food. In today’s world, a modern person cannot function optimally without the Internet. Our work and social lives are powered by the Internet. Video conferencing calls rely on it, and online streaming for entertainment depends on it as well. Therefore, the Internet must be considered an essential utility.

All of us live in houses or apartments, which provide shelter from the elements and a place to call home. However, not all dwellings are created equal—some are made of wood, others of partition boards, and some of concrete and steel. Why does this matter? Because building materials impact WiFi signals, which in turn affect your internet connectivity.

When we sign up for broadband with an Internet Service Provider, we are often provided with a wireless router. In densely populated areas like Singapore, many neighbors have similar wireless routers. Wi-Fi operates on shared airspace and channels, so if your neighbors’ routers use the same Wi-Fi channel, it can cause interference with your signal. Additionally, in larger homes, a single wireless router may not provide coverage throughout the entire house.

With the rapid growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as security cameras, smart home systems, and intelligent light switches, the need for robust security controls has never been greater. Since these devices often operate as black boxes, how can we determine where they are connecting and transmitting data?
