The private issues and data programs in mobile malware return. Some recent examples would be the applications on the iPhone which turns Path upload get in touch with data on the mobile phone for their servers and applications upon Android that turns Instagram is really a malware. Now see this along with discussions with my friends upon Twitter about the security in the actual mobile phone, I was interested to go over about how to use mobile phones securely, especially for mobile phones based on Google android.
It is well known that The search engines do not do tight treatments for Android applications that go around the Android Market. This would create a negative impact, but also an optimistic, negative this means that applications may compromise the security of the telephone we were able to get into the Google android Market and the positive software developers do not have to bother to publish their applications to the Google android Market.
For users associated with Android-based mobile phone, I highly recommend to pay attention to the following when using the telephone or install the application:
- Do not rush to install or even update apps Android
- When installing or upgrading the application, you will be shown a listing application access to your cell phone. If there is a demand for this kind of access "Network communication: full Web access" then you should check out the additional access requests that ask for access to your personal data on cell phone such as "Your personal information". If there is a requirement for access to sensitive to your own mobile phone, check the publisher as well as review of the application. If the writer of his trusted because Twitter Inc.. and evaluate the good, the chances are that the software is safe despite asking for much more access sensitive. If there is absolutely no demand for access to sensitive, you'll be able to safely install or revise the application.
- To determine entry requests that are sensitive to your own mobile phone is easy, as long as you can see English and can certainly know very well what a sensitive access demands
- Unless you are an application creator, I strongly recommend you to set up Android apps outside of the Google android Market
- Do not use unlicensed Android applications, because most most likely the application has been modified as well as pasted features that can give up the security of your mobile phone.
- Enable the Lock Screen in your Android phone that can be present in Settings -> Location and Protection. This is to prevent unwanted utilization of mobile phones by others.
- Install security applications in your Android phone, some had been quite good is Hunt Security & Antivirus and AVG Anti-virus. To Lookout Security & Anti-virus, there are good additional features such as data backup and misplaced phone search.
Well that is just advice from me personally on how to use the Android-based mobile phone securely. Looks a bit complicated? Indeed it is a consequence of buying cell phones based on Android and is also more and more sophisticated gadgets we are, the greater at risk the privacy and security in our disturbed. Better to use your telephone wisely and carefully than later on why-why.
