[dba-Tech] Home routers 'vaccinated' by benign virus

[Jim Lawrence]

Anyone could use Openwrt software for more features and security: (http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/start) Check list to see if your router hardware is supported. Even build your own router with a Raspberry PI.

I suppose it had to happen.  But how does one get infected? The usual
email attachment?

Sounds like a great opportunity for a developer to make a legit
'vaccine' sell it to a company with credibility so that buyers would
have confidence there were no back doors, and take a nice royalty.
