According to the sixth annual Ernst & Young local survey on wireless network security, the number of secured access points increased again last year in Prague.
With 84% of all access points being secured, Prague has, for the first time, drawn almost level with other major world cities, where typically 93% of access points use data encryption. In Bratislava, 77% of all access points are currently secured. The total number of access points in central Prague has increased to 3,347, a 2% increase year-on-year. This is a significant difference compared to the previous trend, when the number of access points used to double annually. On the other hand, Bratislava still witnessed a 46% increase in the total number of access points. For the first time, there has been a decline in the number of access points supporting higher transmission speeds in Prague.
