Prof. Harald Haas of pureLiFi comments:

"LiFi is inherently more secure than Wi-Fi. All you need to do is shut your door and draw your curtains to secure your wireless network. It's so simple everyone could secure a LiFi network."

pureLiFi will demonstrate its first certified commercial LiFi product at an event in London on Monday, October 23. This comes after Professor Haas presented the security benefits of LiFi during the opening keynote at CyberSec 2017 a world leading cyber security conference, attended by high level NATO members.

LiFi provides high speed, bidirectional and fully networked mobile communications using light, providing a similar user experience as Wi-Fi with improved security, data density and reliability. LiFi is increasingly viewed as a transformative technology that can change the way the mobile internet is used as part of future 5G cellular networks, while being an enabler of the emerging Internet of Things.
