When using a public wireless access point, you should be aware of what’s going on around you.
Are others using their computers in close proximity to you? Can others view your screen? Are
you sitting near a window through which someone, using binoculars, could get a view of your
screen? If any of these conditions exist, your sensitive data might be at risk. Consider whether it
is essential to connect to the internet. If an internet connection is not essential, disable wireless
networking altogether. If you do need to connect, use caution and follow the steps noted above.
