The FBI Says Athletes Competing In The Olympics Need To Leave Their Phones At Home

Thankfully, these were not successful due to the protective software in place.

But there is still growing concern surrounding digitized wallets and travel documents stored on cell phones and tablets.

The FBI’s report also gave helpful advice for keeping remote workplaces safe from virtual attacks and possible methods for protecting networks as a whole from malware.

The Bureau even advised employers to administer training and user techniques to their employees in order to protect vital information.

The report’s overall message centered on the importance of user awareness and individual vigilance against cyber attacks, especially surrounding significant cultural and technological events like the Olympic Games.

Hopefully, both the athletes’ and the organization’s tech stay safe with these new guidelines in place.
