airports, cafes and hotels usually have points or hotspots Wi-Fi, however, in most cases, the data are not encrypted, which means that anyone can intercept those with malicious purposes.
According to Kaspersky Lab, we must always take into account the amount of information sent and received through this kind of public networks, especially if personal data like passwords, usernames or financial information.
So what will be the best alternative for accessing the internet on holiday? The best option is to use a VPN (Virtual Private Network), although many administrators utilities blocking this access to prevent your network is not used with malicious purposes.
And if the VPN is blocked, what to do? In some cases, an SSL link level protocol or secure connection can help. It is therefore necessary to type https:// in the address bar, followed by the domain name, before visiting any web page. When the page loads, we prove that the certificate used for encryption is valid and directs us to website authentic. You can also use an Ethernet cable instead of a WiFi connection
security solutions such as Kaspersky Mobile Security and Kaspersky Tablet Security, are another alternative, protecting your devices, so you have a secure browsing, wherever you are.
