    Hi,
    default password = no password = not the best idea if the box is connected to the net.

    ciao

    have you not setup any port forwarding on your router to the enigma box?

    other than some dodgy plugins on the box (as suggested earlier) i dont see how someone could hack into your box if it doesnt have access from the outside network.

    As said only if you have opened ports if you haven't then you should be fine

    this is an old article you should ensure the firmware on the router is the latest version and i would also disable any or the Asus cloud sharing ECT, most common way to bypass a firewall is to use a man in the middle attack that normally requires some form of social engineering :-) like Click this link here :-)

    http://arstechnica.com/security/2014...xploited-flaw/

    The fear of been hack is probably grater than you ever getting hacked most hackers are likely to attack you out for financial gain and are normally just script kiddies so its unlikely that they would target your shares as they would be looking for your bank details......

    keeping your OS,Virus checker and router firmware up to date is a good start and be careful on what you click on.......... its more likely the shares provider was attacked :-)
