Talos Takes Ep. #77: How to connect to (and safely use) public WiFi
Summary: This episode of Talos Takes features Beers with Talos host Mitch Neff discussing the risks of connecting to public WiFi networks and offering tips for users who must connect to a public access point. The episode also looks back on 10 years of Talos through interviews with its leaders and revisits major cybersecurity incidents and events from that period.
Bottom line: The episode's own starting advice is "don't connect to them" - a reminder that the free hotspot at the bar or restaurant is a network you don't control, and every employee who joins one is making that trade without your visibility.
