Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in this method of accessing Wifi, since the user cannot know the security information of the accessed Wifi, there may be some security risky Wifi in the searched Wifi. If the electronic device is connected to the risky Wifi, it may Will lead to the disclosure of sensitive data in electronic devices or malicious attacks
For example, Wifi with security risks may steal account information, password information, address book information, text messages, call log information and other information related to user privacy of applications on electronic devices, resulting in low security for users to access Wifi

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a method and an apparatus for connecting to a Wifi, and an electronic device. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring identifier information of a to-be-connected Wifi; inquiring whether the identifier information is stored in a pre-stored safe Wifi set, if the identifier information is not stored in the safe Wifi set, further performing security detection for the to-be-connected Wifi; and presenting result information of the security detection for users, thereby helping users to determine whether to connect to the to-be-connected Wifi. By application of the method, the apparatus and the electronic device, security of Wifi connection of the users can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to computer network security technology, in particular to a method, device and electronic equipment for accessing Wifi. Background technique [0002] With the computer communication and Internet technology, more and more applications are installed in electronic devices, such as smart mobile phones, personal digital assistants, handheld computers and desktop computers. As WiFi networks become more and more popular, electronic devices generally A built-in wireless fidelity chip is used to connect electronic devices to Wifi. [0003] Since the Wi-Fi provided in most public places is free at present, that is, you can access Wi-Fi without a password, therefore, electronic devices can access Wi-Fi for free in various occasions, for example, use the built-in Wi-Fi chip to search for Wi-Fi in the nearby area. Wifi, select a Wifi from the searched Wifi, and you can access it, which can effectively reduce the user's Internet access cost. ...
