Title: Use a Personal Hotspot instead of public wi fi


1
Why you should use a personal Hotspot instead of
Public Wi-Fi
2
Disadvantages of Public Wi -Fi
  • All information that is being transferred from
    your device are available to other devices on
    that network.

3
TYPE of Attack
  • Man-in-the-middle
  • Wi-Fi sniffing
  • Malware

4
Attack type Man in the MiddlE
  • The attacker is positioned between you and the
    computer you're accessing by creating his own
    network you will access.
  • In this way, the attacker then intercepts all
    communication and data coming from your device.

5
Attack type Wi-fi sniffing
  • Wi- Fi Sniffing is based on the attacker
    downloading huge amounts of data that you send
    and receive in order to dig out something
    possibly useful.
  • The irony is that Wi-Fi sniffing is sometimes
    allowed in the terms and conditions of the
    network, so if you become a victim, it would be
    hard to prove that you were directly targeted.
  • Because the attacker probably downloaded all
    data on the network. Legally speaking, he was
    viewing his network data and stumbled upon your
    user data.

6
Attack Type Malware
  • Malware is the most dangerous among these three
    because the attacker is physically present on
    your device.

hotspot
  • Personal Hots Pot
  • Public Wi-Fi
  • All information that is being transferred from
    your device are available to other devices on
    that network.
  • This is why these connections are extremely
    dangerous, because attackers can acquire your
    usernames, passwords, and other sensitive data.
  • Besides using some prevention-oriented types of
    protection, there are also other ways to protect
    yourself, which generally cost money. For
    example, connecting via VPN Virtual Private
    Network is a pretty safe solution.
  • This kind of a network will encrypt your data
    and will not leave it unprotected. VyprVPN and
    OpenVPN are some of the providers for these types
    of services.

So , we are suggested to you the safest solution
is to rely on your own network and steer clear of
wi fi altogether. Access the internet by using
your device as A personal hotspot. Just pay
attention to data costs.
