Network Security on Shared Wifi?

Suppose you are connecting to the Internet via a shared wifi network. Maybe at a airport or coffee shop, maybe from your office or desk in a "co-working" space. How can you make sure that other people using the network cannot access your computer or the email, files, data you are sending or receiving?

Will using a VPN be enough? Given that you're accessing the VPN through the shared wifi? Is there hardware you can use?
