One of the questions we get repeatedly asked about WiFi from our installed client base is this -is it secure? Can my browsing history be pulled out of air, allowing someone to order 10 tonnes of cheese and bill me for it.
Well, Security is complex when dealing with WiFi. If you have a secure link to a remote website, such as your Online Banking, then yes, your link is encrypted, and is safe from snooping. Same with Facebook and Twitter, assuming you check that you are using the secure web pages.
However, it is always possible for someone with the right toolkit could pull non encrypted traffic from the ether, meaning that some emails, or website data might be vulnerable to the dedicated hacker.
In light if this, Candengo have launched AirCrypt, a secure, encrypted VPN service that you can run over the WiFi HotSpot network to our servers scattered throughout London. It routes all traffic over the encrypted VPN connection, allowing you an unparalleled level of security when using an WiFi hotspot service. No-one can intercept the wireless signals even on non secure sites.
Candengo AirCrypt is available to users at all sites with an OpenWiFi or AirSpot network installed for a small monthly fee. Yearly subscriptions are also available.
