I am not sure if ESPs can really be misused to build a botnet. Either way, security should not be neglected even with the small ESPEasy devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first small hurdle that should make it difficult for potential attackers or just curious visitors to read or even change the configuration of your ESPEasy devices is the password protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once this is set up, you can only access the web interface and change the configuration with the appropriate password. How you can set up this password is described in the following article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But since you can also exclude yourself from accessing your ESPEasy device, we also describe how you can backup and restore the configuration of your ESPEasy device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety instructions <\/span><\/h2>\r\n

Data loss is almost negligible in comparison, but even these can be really annoying. Therefore, please take five minutes to read the safety instructions. Because even the coolest project is not worth injury or other trouble.<\/span>
