Wi-Fi Hacks
Many at times you may have used free Wifi networks. You may have connected your laptop in a hotel room, or connected your mobile to a free Wi-Fi at a railway station or any other public place.
It may be possible that the Wi-Fi network is hacked and you could be sharing information that can be accessed
by someone else.
Some famous attacks that have happened include the Sniffer Attack, via Side-jacking and through Public WiFl Rogue Networks.
What should you do?
1) Make sure you connect to only encrypted Wi-Fi points.
2) If you connect to a website, and then make sure it uses only HTTPS.
3) Never connect to open Wi-Fl routers directly.
