In this paper, we study the update and security practices of individuals in private households with an exploratory interview study. In particular, we investigate participants’ awareness regarding KRACK, a patched key vulnerability in the WPA/WPA2 protocol, and similar vulnerabilities in the context of usage and management scenarios in Wi-Fi networks. We show that while most people are aware of certain dangers, they struggle to address Wi-Fi related vulnerabilities. The findings could prove to be beneficial in identifying not only the current security status of average users regarding Wi-Fi security, but also to improve update and information propagation to mitigate related threats in the future.
