When you’re away from home, the settings can be unfamiliar and your routines are disrupted. It’s hard enough to manage that vulnerability while navigating security checks, arriving at the right gate, or meeting up with your group on time.
Other cybersecurity threats happen much more regularly, and those dangers can be heightened during travel—from exposure via public wifi to “shoulder surfing,” when all a bad actor needs to do is peek at your screen to obtain your sensitive information. If you don’t already have login security set up, make sure access to your phone requires a passcode or facial recognition. Set up the Find My Device feature on anything you bring, which will let you find something that has been misplaced or delete everything if someone steals it.
If you don’t have one already through work, VPNs typically cost under 10 dollars a month, with many under five.
