Public Wi-Fi

  • Public Wi-Fi, whether in a hotel, airport or restaurant, is generally insecure and passes information in clear text readable by other computers.
  • Use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to securely access 海角社区 business information over an encrypted line.
  • Make sure the firewall on your computer is running and turn off file-sharing.
  • Never transmit confidential or sensitive data (social security number, credit card, or bank info) over public Wi-Fi.
  • Turn off your wireless network when not in use.
  • Avoid accessing and transmitting sensitive or confidential information in a public area where it can be viewed by others around you
