What is the secured connection, if one is allotted an infected ip?
Hi,
Now the router has become the target of the attackers, who are attacking thro router to get what they want like remote access, making Denial of Service attacks and whatnot.
By changing the router dns to google or other secured public dns, would somewhat protect this attack by not allowing those connections, besides closing unwanted ports. Checking at router checker Fsecure sites, and shields up, one can be sure of network security to the maximum extent. Users action include change of admin password and other security settings in the router like disabling pings etc.
My question is , if a dynamic ip is allotted to the users by the ISP and if one logging in an infected ips, that is the compromised computer's ips, then what is the use of all those security settings that one make to keep his network totally secured. It is known fact , that external ips are allocated for different logging sessions of the users, besides his device ips. This is the ips , thro which you are connected to the internet for that session.
If one is logged in an infected ip, then what is the use of all those security measures.
I had the experience of not logging in to some forums at some times, saying that i need to provide extra security like filling maths questions and capcha, before allowing to their sites, syaing that spam filter shows this as infected ip. Sometimes, i was asked to log in after sometime, so that log in to a non infected ips to get immediate access.
is my presumption of infected ips not true. or true. If that is true, then any attacker could easily attack the computer at that time by sending brute force attack or any other attack, as the ip is already affected by spam or any other suspicious activity.
Can i expect a detailed reply to the above
