I have said for a long time that WiFi Hotspots are not a secure place to do anything online that you would not want exposed to the general public. This being online banking, online shopping, viewing your corporate email account, etc. being just a few.
With free online tools available on the Internet, it has become very easy for an attacker to view the information that you are entering into your computer from a free Wifi hotspot. These WiFi hotspots may be very handy, but not very secure.
The article above will show you a couple of ways that you can protect you and your computer if you travel frequently and use these hotspots. I want you to stay protected.
Stay safe out there!

Are these hackers students trying to get test information or do you think this is a more professional job? |

If you as an organisation ever have the misfortune to have to notify your customers of a breach,never include a link in the reset mail, it encourages insecure behaviour in your customer base and leaves them wide open to the inevitable phishing attacks that always follow this kind of event. Always advise them to navigate to your site themselves and follow the on screen instructions that they will surely find there.
