In this technology unauthorized Wi-Fi access Are most common issue to prevent this issuewe provide the user name and password to all users for access the Wi-Fi with the data limit andaccess permission that mean the student access only educational sites or block any type ofdownloading, staff allow to access all sites and downloading.b) What network solution would address each of their problemsData breach problem could be solved by using a good password policy such as by keepingan unpredictable and complex passwords (Shariatmadariand et.al., 2015). Updating theoperating systems and application software also prevents data breach threats. Using firewallcould be the first step for defence in network security.
