Wanting to make it easy for guests, a hotel lobby WiFi network is usually left open and unsecured, no password required.
Avoid submitting passwords and credit card numbers
while using this network.
A lobby is a target rich environment – the people using hotel WiFi are often booking travel plans, making reservations, using their credit card. Plus, it’s easy to blend into a lobby, and not look out of place sitting for a long time with a laptop.
