Staying safe on public wifi
What steps can one take to remain addequately safe when using public wifi connections? I spend a lot of time at cafes and need to access my personal accounts. I also would rather that my traffic not be logged or that they not know what websites I'm looking at ( for instance, I want to be able to log into crypto exchanges and do some trading). I just want to try to cover my ass but I don't want to be overboard/anal about it so I'm looking for some tips on how to start to be more safe online but I don't want to operate in a bubble. Any basic tips would be awesome, thanks.

Accidentally left a server open with semi-default password. How can I ensure I wasn't hacked?
For about 18 hours you could log in as root over the internet to my server using the credentials root and test -- I unfortunately forgot I left root login enabled. I promptly disabled root login, changed the password, and looked through the SSH logs. As usual, I saw a bunch of failed attempts to login from the normal bots, but checking last root didn't show any logins out of the ordinary.What else should I do to see if it's compromised? Or is there no way to be sure? What do you all recommend?

What is the best open source solution for encrypting files on a USB drive?
This is for storing backups on a USB drive. I'm running Windows 10 Home on my PC. I'm looking for something with the ease of use that TrueCrypt had.
