Secrecy outage probability (SOP) and secrecy rate (SR) of the reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) assisted wireless networks under Rician fading are investigated in this paper. More precisely, we enhance the secrecy performance of the considered networks by suppressing the wiretap channel instead of maximizing the main channel. We propose a simple heuristic algorithm to find out the optimal phase-shift of each RIS's element. Simulation results based on the Monte-Carlo method are given to verify the superiority of the proposed optimal phase-shifts compared to the random phase-shifts design.
