Home security 5 Ds:
Deter - Make your house look unappealing.
Denial - Make your house difficult to get into.
Delay - Make your house difficult to navigate.
Detain - Make your house/you capture the intruders.
Death - Kill the intruders.
If the previous one fails, the next one comes into effect.
A good method of denial is to change all screws from 1 inch wood screws on all door locks and strike plates to 3 inch screws, as well as in the door frame every six inches up and down from ceiling to floor. This will increase the number of kicks required to gain entry from about 3 to 12. A better solution is install metal door frames throughout your house, especially ones designed for home defence.
Mobile, website, & app passwords
Bot attacks are common these days. They are computers designed to use brute force to cycle through combinations of letters, numbers, and symbols until they crack your password. Most bots are programmed to move on if they fail for 15 minutes, but they can cycle through 500 characters per minute. Change your passphrase to 24 characters or more. This will deter a supercomputer for years.
8 Things You Can Do to Improve Your Car for Escape and Evasion
1. Install run-flat tires. These are relatively cheap enough that most people can afford them and will enable you to get away if you get a flat.
2. Add 3M shielding to your windows. This will make them break proof from something like a brick or rock, but not bullets. If you want to make them bulletproof, use what’s called polycarbonate. This is like plastic plexiglass. The thickness determines the calibre of bullet it will stop.
3. Install a sunroof. This will allow alternate escape, posting a gunner if need be, or to throw items back behind you if you are being followed.
4. Get a bag full of nuts and keep them next to your drivers seat. These are great for throwing at pursuers. Ceramic like spark plugs will break windows very easily.
5. Store a 1 million candlepower spotlight next to your driver’s seat. They cannot pursue if they cannot see.
6. Build a larger version of tetsubishi (caltrops) for your car. These will burst tires of pursuers.
7. A baton, because it can expand and be small when stored.
8. A tazer, because, you know, it’s a tazer.
Stolen Credit Card
A thief will do several things when they first get your credit card:
- They’ll rack up debt as fast as possible.
- They’ll make a small donation to a charity to see if you credit card has been frozen yet.
- They’ll sell the credit card number on the dark web to someone else to use.
- They’ll try to get your identity from it, such as your SIN#, DOB, etc.
- They’ll open up a bank account or apply for more credit.
Things you can do to stop it:
- Use an RFID blocker to prevent them from scanning your wallet on a walk-by.
- Shield your credit card number from possible cell phone cameras and all cameras.
- Shield your PIN# when you need to enter it.
- Put a freeze/fraud alert on your credit so that you must be notified when it’s used.
- Use an aluminum wallet to prevent RFID’s from passing through it.
How to keep hackers out of your house
Smart devices are becoming more vulnerable to hackers, whether private or government. Cameras mean people can see you. Microphones mean people can hear you. Here are some things you can do to stop them.
- Buy devices that use FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) technology to connect to the internet. This will change frequencies 75 times every 400 milliseconds. The vulnerable technology to avoid is called DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum). It stays on the same frequency at all times.
- Avoid using a cloud service. Many devices record or backup to a cloud service, but these clouds are easy to access and hackers can use it as a backdoor to gain access to your device.
- Devices like wireless routers broadcast what is known as an SSID (Service Set Identifier). By default, the manufacturer or provider has given it a name. You should change the name, and also disable the SSID broadcasting. This does not disable Wi-Fi. This means that someone wanting to connect to your network would need to know the SSID name ahead of time, as they will not see it in the list of available networks. Most routers or modems can be accessed and the settings changed by typing the web address 192.168.2.1 in any web browser currently connected to your network. If that doesn’t work, consult the user manual of the router/modem or call your ISP (Internet Service Provider) and ask them how to do it.
