La fullfilment of security requirements It is one of the aspects that most concern us when using our Android mobile. And although the WiFi networks they have been a great advance for us to be able to connect to the Internet at full speed, at any time and at any time, the truth is that they are also the key to a large number of security problems.
That is why today we present a android app that will help us discover if we are connected to a secure network.
Routercheck, the app that will help you discover if your network is secure
What Routercheck Analyzes
Routerchech performs a triple analysis of our WiFi network, to make sure that everything is perfectly secure. First, it performs an analysis of the encryption used by our network and the use of WPS, if any. In a second analysis, check the DNS configuration of the router, to check discrepancies.
The third analysis is the most technical, since it is in charge of checking if the router has any type of vulnerability that could cause a problem in our android phones or tablets. Problem such as not being updated to the latest version of firmware or system software of the router itself.
What to do if you find any vulnerability
In the event that Routercheck finds a problem in your WiFi network, the application itself will take care of giving you instructions and useful advice, to try to find a solution.
Although the solutions offered by the application are usually explained quite simply, the truth is that if we do not have technical knowledge about the configuration of our router, It will be difficult for us to fix the vulnerabilities. Come on, what if we don't have one medium or higher technical base, Routercheck will help us to know if we are facing a secure connection, but we will hardly know how to fix it. In any case, we will be aware that there is a security flaw and we can always check with the company that provides us with the internet.
Routercheck failures
In general, we could say that Routercheck is an application that works well. The bugs reported by users of the application are not related to efficiency, but to "simple" operation, such as the fact that cannot be used in landscape (nonsense on the other hand).
