Security in file sharing
I am wondering, will sharing folders unsecured over a secured network be hazardous? Is it possible for incoming traffic through the firewall to come and steal the data that is being shared? I am wondering because I was thinking of sharing folders from one computer to another, but all have no passwords. Now since I am the only one in the LAN that has access to these files I am not concerned about security there. I just fear of an outsider coming in and potentially stealing the data. Any thoughts?
