COMPUTER HACKS AND DATA BREACHES

‎05-17-2022 05:10 AM

 

Lots of talk about privacy and the lack of security these days.

 

Just curious .... if you have a smartphone, how many apps did you put on it, and are you concerned about using them?   

 

How many know what the likelihood is that your data can be accessed via an app on your phone?

@Tinkrbl44  I have eliminated quite a few apps, but  I do have security on my phone.

The newer IOS versions have a lot more ways to protect your data.  Take a tour.

 

The first step is always to know your apps.  Then you can keep tabs on what they are accessing.

 

I do not worry.

Sorry, I don't understand the reference.  Take a tour of what ...  and where?
