1.
Always use a passcode. If someone gets
hold of your device, the person has immediate access to your apps and data.
2. Make your passcode difficult to
guess. Codes such as 1234 or 2580
can be cracked in seconds. Go for something that’s unique but easy for you to remember.
3. Longer is stronger. The longer the passcode, the harder it is to crack. Make yours a minimum of six
digits.
4. Mix numbers and letters. If your device allows, use a passcode that combines numbers, letters and punctuation. Avoid dictionary words and
choose a memorable combination.
5. Make it unique. Don’t use the same passcode for anything else, including other devices,
bank cards or online accounts. That way, if one passcode gets hacked the rest stay secure.
6. Be discreet. Look around and make sure no one is watching you enter your passcode, just as
you would protect your PIN at the ATM machine.

They only
Need Your Cell Phone Number!

'Anti-Malware Protection for your Smartphone and Mobile Devices'.
Crackers can download rogue software (which they can get for a few
hundred dollars),
using only a 'target' cell phone number (that allows you to send a
text message to the target
number). The phone does not know it has been sent a message. The software infiltrates the
target phones software, turning it into a spy phone. It uploads numbers that are contacted
when
a call is made by the infected phone and automatically reads text messages.
The program also attaches itself to the target phones unique number, so changing
the SIM card will have no effect. Once a new SIM card is inserted the rogue
program will reestablish the infection process. The Cell phone A5/1
code can be broken now for about $65 by experts.
