Most of us use the mobile phone both at work and in contact with family and friends, but with the spread of technology and communication and imaging techniques are also spreading harmful and unsafe applications that may harm your life or your mobile phone.
In this article I will give you a set of powerful tips and solutions to avoid security issues and to keep your privacy on your mobile phone.
- When you download phone applications and software, make sure that you have installed a protection, anti-virus and malware application, and that the protection application you are using always loads from the official operating platform site of your phone's operating system, whether your Android or ios. For example Android applications for example you should always carry applications from the Google Play Store main platform for applications.
- Be sure to constantly upgrade your operating system to your mobile phone, whether IOS or Android, whenever new updates come up.
- Eliminate unnecessary and unnecessary applications that unnecessarily overload your phone and are not necessary to use.
- Bluetooth Security: There are programs that get you through Bluetooth may cause you harm: There are new viruses transmitted through Bluetooth to the smartphone and infect operating systems and other operating systems. These viruses can perform multiple tasks at the same time, such as sending text messages (SMS), stealing personal device information, installing harmful software in the phone and sending it to other phones recorded on the phone book through Bluetooth and also collecting data about you without your knowledge
- Make sure to use the phone lock to prevent intrusion and penetration.
- Use a password to unlock the phone The phone password is the primary line of defense and strength to protect your information. The Android operating system allows you to specify a password pattern that you use to open the device instead of the traditional password, which is a faster way to open the device compared to a password and secure significantly.
- Some phones on Android 4.0 and above provide the ability to unlock the screen through the Face Recognition algorithm. It is enough to have a quick look at the front camera of the phone to open the screen. However, this method is less secure than the password and access pattern, where the face can sometimes be identified by showing the person's picture in front of the camera instead of the person. If your device is stolen, someone who can steal your device can open your phone by showing your face image to your phone's camera. So Google added in the Android version 4.1 option allows you to blink your eyes while checking your face when you open the device, so be sure that you actually exist and not your image.
- If you are using a separate microphone, remove it when you are not using it, and if they are built-in, make sure their settings protect your privacy.
- Cover the camera for your phone and laptop with a tape.
- Check your app settings, why Twitter or Facebook needs to access the microphone.
- Do not receive suspicious links and links on the websites you visit. Always make sure that you are confident of the sites you visit and that they are safe sites and have no suspicious or malicious links.
- Do not think that the hacked and illegal games are the most saving for you. You may spend a lot of money on your phone because of the damage and the problems it has caused because of these applications much more than you might pay for a paid application. Infringed applications and games in illegal ways. So do not use those suspicious applications. Always keep away from hacked applications and games. They contain insecure and suspicious files that may not be detected by viruses or overwrite them. They damage the mobile phone sooner or later.
