Using SafeSurf.pro on Public Wi-Fi Networks

A VPN adds protection on public Wi-Fi, while HTTPS and careful sign-in remain essential.

What to do

1. Confirm the correct network name with the venue and avoid lookalike hotspots.
2. Complete a legitimate captive portal if necessary, then connect the VPN before sensitive activity.
3. Use HTTPS websites and do not ignore certificate warnings.
4. Disable automatic joining and disconnect from the hotspot when finished.

Keep in mind

A VPN does not prevent phishing, malware or a fake payment page. Consider mobile data when a hotspot seems suspicious.
