					<description><![CDATA[So, with another major collection of user credentials being uncovered (and reported in the mainstream media), there is a slight increase in interest in people, their data, and the credentials they use.
For those who may not yet have caught up with the news (or those reading this in the future and wondering which massive credential theft I'm referring to), this is the uncovering of the work done by 'Cyber Vor' who managed to snare around 1.2 billion (yes, with a B) unique user credentials.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[So, now we have teenagers, I've realised a need to create a little more separation with our home network. The intent of this is to give them a segment of the network where they can connect their wireless devices, use the internet and allow their friends to also connect their devices when they visit. With freedom comes responsibility, so we also want to be able to enforce limits on the hours of use, conserve bandwidth, and attempt to protect them from malware and viruses.

Future enhancements may include traffic reporting, content filtering - but for now we want to get them off the core network, and onto their own segment.]]></description>
