In this lovely summer, you might enjoy your holiday abroad. You might stay at the hotel, lie on a king-sized bed, use the hotel's Wi-Fi and stalk Facebook… but you may then fall prey to hackers while getting online through a public network. Public network may not be secured, hence, do always observe the following while using public internet service: - Avoid typing sensitive information
- Access secured web pages started with "https"
- Disable resources sharing on your devices
- Install and enable firewall/ accredited mobile security apps (e.g. Kaspersky) on your device
- Avoid using communication apps
- Turn-off your Wi-Fi connection if you don't use it
