Due to cybersecurity concerns, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has asked athletes participating in the February 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics and March 2022 Paralympics to use a temporary phone while at the games. Though the FBI is not aware of any specific cyber threats against the Olympics, athletes should err on the side of caution and remain vigilant, the federal agency says. In some Western countries, the National Olympic Committees are also advising their athletes to leave personal devices at home or use temporary phones.
