Question: What Security Precautions Do Hot Spots Have In Place?
Answer: Public hot spots do not normally have any security in place. It is your responsibility to have a firewall installed on your laptop or use a VPN when connecting to your office network.
You should make sure that you have disabled file sharing on your mobile gear before connecting to a Wi-Fi network in a public place. Failure to do so can allow someone else on the network access to your files.
