If you are in a trip with your mobile devices, you should pay attention to the security of valuable and sensitive information and data in devices. Apart from password protect folders in devices; you can take the following tips.
Do not connect to unsecure wireless networks.
Most people know this tip. If you are in public site and search a wireless network needing no login password, don't use it. Unsecure network is just like a two-way street. Everyone can access the network and all users in the network may be able to access your mobile devices so as to access your information or data in devices.
Do not access financial or banking accounts or records during the trip.
When you are in a trip, you are likely to connect your mobile devices to the public or other unknown wireless network. In this case, it's not advisable to access your financial or banking accounts or records in mobile devices.
Do not use “Remember me” when surfing the Internet.
Using “Remember me” when browsing sites such as social networking or forum is convenient, but the convenience will bring about many threats to your information in the sites. Once you use "remember me" in sites, or allow the Internet browser to remember your password and username, the security of user names and passwords get vanished. If a thief steals your mobile device, he can easily obtain your information online, with which he can even steal your information offline.
After using Internet browser, remember to clear history and cache content.
The Internet browser will remember any information you left during surfing the Internet, it will remember even after you logoff. Before terminating the online operation (especially on public mobile terminal equipment), you should clear personal data stored in browser (cookie, history and internet files). You can clear these histories through the 'tools' menu on most Internet browsers.
If you use the public computer, beware of keylogger program and tracking software.
Hackers often install keylogger programs in public computers (such as computers in a hotel or public library). These programs will track victims' typed contents in computer. The hackers will get your user name and password from the logs collected by these programs so as to steal your information.
