How can you protect yourself from these types of attacks?

If you're a family man this story will make your hair stand on end, and not just because of the appearance of a ghost, but because now the hackers attack baby monitors .

A couple, who lives in New York, did not understand why their 3-year-old was so afraid of sleeping alone in his room. The boy said that a man was talking to him on the phone. His parents were confused, but as they did not find anything strange in the room they let him pass.

One April night when they were walking near the room they heard a man say: "Wake up little boy, your dad is looking for you". When they entered the room the same voice said: "Look, someone is coming."

No, it's not the plot of a horror movie, but that does not mean that history should not scare you. A hacker was remotely controlling his baby monitor.

Monitors that connect to the Internet so you can see your baby, from your cell phone or any device, are especially vulnerable to this type of attack, since hackers can hear you see and even interact with your baby when you are not.

Another similar case occurred in Minnesota, where a mother listened to gloomy music in her baby's room but when she entered, it went off. They tracked the device and found a website with thousands of photos from cameras like yours.
