Public Wi-Fi networks are convenient, but they can also become a target for attackers. A compromised hotel Wi-Fi gateway could potentially allow attackers to manipulate network traffic, redirect users to fake login pages, and steal sensitive information such as Microsoft 365 credentials.
Some common risks include:
๐น Fake Wi-Fi login portals
๐น DNS redirection to malicious websites
๐น Credential harvesting through fake Microsoft 365 login pages
๐น Session hijacking attempts
A few simple steps can greatly reduce the risk:
โ
Avoid accessing sensitive accounts on unknown networks
โ
Use a trusted VPN when connecting through public Wi-Fi
โ
Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
โ
Verify the website address before entering credentials
โ
Avoid installing unexpected certificates or applications requested by public networks
