What is the most appropriate risk assessment while doing banking on public Wi-Fi?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Sensitive information may be unsafe, so it should be avoided
Public Wi-Fi may be poorly secured, incorrectly configured, or controlled by an unknown person. Banking involves passwords and financial information, so it is safer to postpone the activity or use a trusted network or mobile connection. Public Wi-Fi is not always unsafe, but its trust cannot be assumed; it also does not remove the need for passwords.
