News | What are the dangers of public Wi-Fi?

Starting October 4, new rules for connecting to public internet networks will take effect in Kazakhstan.

Users will be able to authenticate in one of two ways: by entering a one-time SMS password sent to their phone number or by using a digital signature.

The changes are intended to improve security when using public Wi-Fi networks, which may pose risks to privacy, finances and personal data.

At the same time, questions remain about who will identify and shut down malicious Wi-Fi hotspots designed to steal digital signatures and other user data.
