Cybersecurity professionals recommend steering clear of sensitive financial activities while connected to public Wi-Fi networks in places like hotels, cafes, and airports, despite the encryption features of banking apps. It is best to avoid sending money, updating passwords, or setting up new beneficiaries while on these networks. Instead, stick to simply viewing your balance and recent activity, and ensure your applications are always running the latest versions. To protect yourself from phishing attempts and fraudulent hotspots, rely on secure connections and remember to turn off your Wi-Fi once you have finished your banking.
