Hello! I have connected my two computers through router and router connected to cable modem. My network works just fine, but I am concerned about security setup. I have did not mentioned that my network is wireless and I know that this kind of networks are very vulnerable. So, tell me what to do. Thank you!

Hello! Well, it is correct (that what you heard). You will need first configure DHCP server on your router to gives only two IP addresses. When you do that, go to router settings and configure in MAC filter list only MAC addresses for your two computers. When you do this, none computer will be able to access your network, except your computers.
