Nowadays it has become difficult to spend even a day without the internet. Nowadays everyone has a smartphone in their hands. Many times users connect their phones to public WiFi after their mobile data runs out.
Nowadays, public WiFi is available everywhere, be it a station or a restaurant. Using public WiFi can put you in danger. Today we are going to tell you about some things that you should keep in mind.
Turn off the automatic connection
With the help of an automatic Wi-Fi network, your phone gets connected to any public Wi-Fi. But do you know that doing this can also be dangerous for your phone? Hackers can easily steal your private or personal details with the help of public WiFi. Therefore, you should always keep the automatic connection turned off.
Connect only to trusted networks
Whenever you use public Wi-Fi, always use a trusted network. Many times scammers set the name of their hotspot as WiFi to steal users' data. Whenever a user connects to this network, hackers hack his/her personal data.
Do not use banking sites
When connected to public WiFi, you are advised not to do any bank-related work through it. Many times, under the guise of this, scammers steal your banking details and login details from your phone. Hackers steal all your personal details with the help of public WiFi.
Use VPN
Use a VPN to protect your information on public Wi-Fi networks. A VPN re-routes your data through a secure encrypted network. You can find VPN apps on all platforms, be it Android, iOS, Windows, or macOS.
