Anthony Rexsun is a [Cybersecurity Architect & Strategist] and the voice behind Home Privacy Network (HPN), where he translates enterprise-grade security into practical, family-first protection. He partners with FEMA and large enterprises to develop cybersecurity policies, incident-response playbooks, security awareness training, and CSIRT programs—then distills those lessons into clear guides for home networks, IoT security, and online privacy.
Anthony’s writing covers next-generation firewalls (NGFW), DNS filtering, VPN best practices, phishing defense, network segmentation, and zero-trust principles adapted for households and small businesses. His mission is simple: protect children and finances by blocking trackers and scams, reducing attack surface, preventing objectionable content, and securing data at home and in the office—without surrendering control to the cloud.
On the HPN blog, you’ll find step-by-step setups, buyer’s guides, hardening checklists, and field notes from real-world deployments that make modern cybersecurity understandable, actionable, and future-proof.
