 How to protect your mobile phone from being hacked

  To prevent the mobile phone from being hacked, you have to keep many things in mind, let's now know how to avoid mobile hacking and save your personal information.  Ways to avoid hacking your mobile

  1. Select strong password

  The most basic and the first step to protect your mobile phone from being hacked is to set a strong password, pattern or PIN in your mobile phone so that no other person can unlock your phone easily.

  2. Keep Device Updates

  To secure your smartphone, always keep your phone's operating system up to date.  The new update fixes a number of bugs, loopholes that have been detected by hackers.

  So always keep your phone up to date so that no hacker can hack the smartphone taking advantage of bugs / shortcomings.

  3. Don't install 3rd party apps

  Many smartphone users download the application from anywhere and install it in their smartphone, it can be fatal for you.  Always download the application from your app store.

  If you are an Android user then iPhone user from Play Store, then download from Apple's App Store.  Most applications available at these stores are securitized.  Do not use third party apps.

  4. Do not use public and other WiFi

  You must have seen that free WiFi is available in many public places, due to the temptation of this free WiFi, many smartphone users start using the Internet by connecting to public WiFi.

  But do you know that doing so can be bad for you.  Many hackers easily steal smartphone user data by luring free WiFi.  If you want to avoid mobile hacking then you have to stop using public wifi.

  5. Turn off extra connection feature

  The smartphone has various connectivity features like Bluetooth, WiFi, hotspot etc.  If you are not using these features, then turn them off because any hacker can hack your phone using these connectivity features.

  6. Install app by viewing permission

  Smartphone users download many types of applications from the app store but they do not pay any attention to what the application is asking for.  There are many such applications on the play store that ask for many permissions without any reason.

  Whenever you install the application, pay attention to its permission or you go to your phone's settings and block the application's unusable permission.

  7. Enable Encryption

  This feature is very useful to protect your smartphone from being hacked.  This feature is for both Android users and iPhone users.

  The encryption feature encrypts your mobile data so that no other person can misuse your data without a password.  You must use this feature.

  8. Lock essential apps

  Most of all smartphone users use PIN, pattern in their phone to lock the smartphone but many users do not find any lock in their smartphone application.

  If you want to give better security to your phone, then you should also keep a lock in the applications of your phone so that even if someone unlocks your phone password, it cannot access your data.

  9. Do not root the mobile

  Many smartphone users root their smartphones due to many reasons.  Rooting has its advantages and disadvantages.  If you want to root your personal smartphone then do not do this at all.

  Because after rooting you will not get any updates from the company as well as the chances of phone hacking are increased.  My opinion is that you do not use your personal smartphone by rooting it.
