Brief Description:
Public Wi-Fi networks are not secure because they are usually open (they do not require a password) and anyone can connect to them, and in this way it is also possible to connect to your device. Also, some of these public networks are not even real, an individual hides behind them, who in this way breaks into your device and has the possibility of stealing data.
