Public Wifi: Nothing is better than getting outside of the office and set up a mobile workplace somewhere new. The problem is that in order to get the work done we need to be connected to the internet.
I get it a lot of locations provide free public WiFi but there is a problem with that, who knows who else is on that free WiFi around us. It could be someone set up in a car nearby or someone sitting off to the side.
So there are a couple of things we can do to protect ourselves when our and about and using Public Wifi.
I suggest using a VPN. A VPN (Virtual Private Network) it does what it says it does. It creates a Virtual PRIVATE Network over the Wifi. So no one can see what I am doing. Not only is it important for your laptops I would suggest one for your mobile devices as well.
Public WiFi is free but at WHAT cost?
