ChatGPT To address the security and privacy concerns on the user's smartphone after connecting to a compromised public Wi-Fi network, the technician should suggest the following actions: 1. A. Disable Wi-Fi autoconnect: By disabling Wi-Fi autoconnect, the smartphone will no longer automatically connect to any available Wi-Fi networks. This will prevent the device from connecting to potentially malicious networks in the future. 2. D. Schedule an antivirus scan: Running an antivirus scan on the smartphone will help detect and remove any malware or viruses that may have infected the device. This is an important step to ensure the security and privacy of the user's data. The other options have their own significance but are not directly related to addressing security and privacy concerns in this scenario:
