Here
are three simple tools to secure your data from hackers while travelling:
1.
Use a VPN
A
VPN, virtual private network, creates a sort of tunnel that routes your
Internet traffic to a secure server to a location of the user’s choosing.
Because the connection is encrypted, no one can watch into the tunnel to
monitor activity or collect information. It makes surfing the web more safer by
encrypting your real location and IP address.
VPN
improves security, but also keep governmental & corporate firewalls. If
your Facebook is blocked then it will unblock it. VPN even hide your location
& IP.
Want
the US catalog for Netflix and Spotify while traveling in Europe? No problem!
Simply connect to any server in the US.
2.
Get Install an Ad Blocker
One
of the most common ways of public Wi-fi hotspot to invade in your system is by
inserting advertisements into your apps & websites. If you click on these
advertisements they can download adware or malware and after they can create
numerous of virus in your system which can lead to hack. And simple way to get
rid of it is to install Ad-blocking extension on your browser.
Adblockers & Ad Blocker Plus can allow only white-listed adds, shown on the
webpages and all other ads will be removed from the pages.
3.
Only Browse HTTPS-Secured Sites
Many
website have two version of each pages: HTTP & HTTPS. The ‘S’ stands for
‘secure’ so no one else can see it. Anytime you access sensitive and personal
information online, always check to make sure that the website is using HTTPS, whether
you are at home or Public area.
The
best way to confirm that you are always using HTTPS, is by installing HTTPS
everywhere. The extension will
automatically redirect you to the HTTPS version of a web page if it exists. The
extension was created by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a nonprofit
organization that defends online civil liberties, which also makes Privacy
Badger.
