Start with the network 先确认网络本身
Confirm the network name with staff when possible. Captive portals can be normal, but unexpected login prompts and certificate warnings are reasons to stop and investigate. 条件允许时向工作人员确认网络名称。认证页面可能正常,但意外登录提示或证书警告应当先停下来核实。
Prefer HTTPS sites and keep your operating system and browser current. Turn off automatic joining for unknown networks. 优先使用 HTTPS 网站,保持系统与浏览器更新,并关闭自动加入未知网络。
Protect the account too 同时保护账号
A VPN does not prevent phishing or protect a reused password. Use a password manager, enable multi-factor authentication, and check the destination before entering credentials. VPN 无法防止钓鱼,也无法保护重复使用的密码。请使用密码管理器、启用多因素认证,并在输入凭据前确认目标站点。
For sensitive work, follow your organization’s policy; it may require a managed connection rather than a consumer service. 处理敏感工作时遵循组织政策;可能需要受管连接,而不是面向消费者的服务。
