Wi-Fi turns out to be one of the basic requirement .  Free-Wifi is really a blessing  but public Wi-Fi networks have their own drawbacks and share of data is really  insecure. Even if a Wi-Fi network has a password, that doesn't keep you safe from other people on the network. 



It's notoriously easy for any of them to see what you're doing and, in some cases, steal personal information  on your device . There are some software’s like Port Scanners which are capable of finding active ports in your gadget which can act as an open door for viruses and Trojans specially and lead your computer in vain.

Some Trojans like beast, Sub7 and all have a tendency to replicate once they are thrown to your computer. It would be very easy for a cracker to use that active port to have access to your computer.

Luckily, there's a lot you can do to stay safe, whenever you're on a public network, and you should be ok.

U must : 

Turn off Wireless card  when not in use. 
Use of VPN is recommended.
Turn Off Share Folders.
Be Cautious of data you are sharing .
