Question

a public wi-fi risk that can be minimized by only visiting encrypted sites with an https indicator is:
harmful software attacks
rogue public wi-fi
junk mail
man-in-the-middle attacks

Explanation:

Man - in - the - Middle (MitM) attacks involve intercepting communication between two parties. When a user visits an encrypted site with HTTPS, the data is encrypted, making it hard for an attacker to intercept and read the data, thus minimizing MitM attacks. Harmful Software Attacks are about malware, Rogue Public Wi - Fi is a fake network, and Junk Mail is unsolicited emails, none of which are directly mitigated by HTTPS - based site visits.

Answer:

Man - in - the - Middle Attacks
