Be it waiting for a bus at bus stop, waiting for a flight at airport or even waiting for your cappuccino at your favorite coffee joint, one thing we observe in common is impatience.Yes, impatience is the new world. It takes two minutes to get your coffee ready, but in that 2 minutes itself we check our FB updates and twitter updates.Such is the addiction to the cyber world today.

With the Wifi now being freely available everywhere it has even exacerbated the addiction to surf. While it gives a sense of satisfaction of being updated, lot of us are oblivious to the fact our data is under constant threat of theft. Phishing has been a continuous activity. All countermeasures taken also proved fatal against growing hacking techniques.

While most of us are worried about physical possessions, one must remember our digital data is equally prone to theft. Common perception among wifi users is, as long as it is password protected data is safe. In reality it is possible to rob your valuable data if anyone else is working on the same network at the same time. Passwords really dont matter then.

Norton has come with an app called Norton WiFi Privacy and is available for subscription on both IoS and Android platforms. It comes with annual subscription charges of $29.99.Over half of US respondents have logged into social media accounts while using an unsecure WiFi network and one in five admitted to accessing financial or banking information.
