Public Computers Safety Tips: Interview with Cybersecurity Expert Ravi Bahethi

Too Long; Didn't Read

Staying safe on a public computer is essential in keeping your data secure from cybercriminals. Public computers are attractive to thieves and generally creepy people. Use common sense in looking out for anyone peeking around and over your shoulder when using a public machine. Never use a public or shared computer to input your full name, birthdate, social security number, account numbers, or any other sensitive and personal information. Create a Virtual Private Network (VPN) tunnel to your personal computer and use it to do your work.
