Instagram Facebook In this episode, Tommaso discusses how to manage cyber and personal security risks while traveling, particularly in tourist hotspots. He shares practical tips to protect against scams and pickpockets, ensuring a safer travel experience. Key Points: Cybersecurity Risks: Travelers are prime targets for cybercriminals due to their reliance on public Wi-Fi and charging stations. Skimming devices and compromised Wi-Fi routers are common methods used to steal personal data. Criminals are getting more sophisticated with phishing and vishing schemes Personal Safety: Pickpocketing is prevalent in popular tourist destinations like Rome and Venice. Organized criminal groups operate strategically, often with women performing thefts and men watching for law enforcement. Large crowds and momentary distractions provide ideal cover for these activities. Episode Highlights: Cybersecurity Tips: Avoid using public USB charging stations due to the risk of juice jacking. Use a portable charging brick and a backpack with an external charging port. Use cellular data or an eSIM instead of public Wi-Fi whenever possible. Use a VPN to encrypt your internet traffic, especially on public Wi-Fi. Only use ATMs inside banks to avoid skimming devices and shoulder surfing. Personal Safety Tips: Be aware of your surroundings, especially in crowded areas. Use money belts and hotel safes to protect valuables. Avoid showing off expensive items like jewelry. Keep wallets in front zipped pockets. Resources and Links: This is the link that will help you extend your phones batter life while traveling. Save Battery
