Cybersecurity Tip of the Week – Avoid public charging when out and about

|

Many establishments like airports have charging stations with USB plugs that you can use to charge vapes, e-readers, laptops, tablets, and phones. However, threat actors can load malware onto these ports to “juice-jack” — accessing and stealing data from devices being charged. Carry a charged portable power bank with you to charge your devices on the go rather than using these public plugs.
