The Los Angeles authorities have revealed that a group of thieves has been outfoxing smart devices throughout the area.

A statement from the Los Angeles Police Department on March 4 highlighted concerns about a group in Wilshire using Wi-Fi jamming technology to deactivate surveillance cameras and alarm systems that rely on Wi-Fi.

The recent spate of tech-savvy robberies in California forms part of a wider trend of technologically advanced criminal activities occurring nationwide. In the past year, law enforcement authorities in Minnesota and Connecticut also issued cautionary advisories to residents regarding organized groups of thieves skilled in Wi-Fi jamming. These examples are just a fraction of the numerous instances reported.

KARE11 has reported that even though the Federal Communications Commission has prohibited Wi-Fi signal jammers jamming devices, criminals can still purchase them inexpensively. These devices do not necessarily disable other devices but rather overload the network they are connected to.

The intention behind these devices, as explained by cybersecurity expert Mark Lanterman, is to obstruct radio transmitters and create traffic congestion that hinders genuine communication.

He recommended that if you opt for a Wi-Fi camera for your front door, you should perhaps contemplate using a hardline camera inside your home. Wired cameras connected through Ethernet cables do not rely on Wi-Fi networks and are not vulnerable to interference caused by a wifi jammer.

It is strongly recommended by the Los Angeles police to have burglary alarm systems hard wired.

Tom’s Hardware states that while smart technology may be a contributing factor to the issue, it can also be part of the solution. It is recommended by officials to employ timers or smart home devices to simulate occupancy when you are not present. Furthermore, certain smart home technology is capable of notifying users in the event of signal or connection disruptions.

In addition, Tom's Hardware recommends connecting surveillance devices directly to your device for storing camera footage, rather than solely relying on a cloud storage system. This way, even if there is a Wi-Fi disruption, the footage will still be saved and accessible.

The LAPD promotes vigilance among residents through the practice of securing doors, enlisting neighbors to watch over their homes during absences, and reporting any suspicious behavior, including the presence of vehicles with temporary or dealer plates.

Wilshire Park is located in Central Los Angeles.
