Secure your mobile device:

  1. Use a password or passcode
    Make sure you use a password or passcode that is difficult for others to guess.
  2. Install security apps
    Install security software on to your phone to protect your phone from unauthorised use if lost or stolen.
  3. Be wary of downloading apps
    Only download apps from a trusted source and be wary of downloading apps from sites and links that you cannot easily identify.
  4. Use a secure Wi-Fi connection
    When connecting to Wi-Fi networks, verify that the network is secure or an official network such as an airport or caf'9.
  5. Never leave your things unattended
    Never leave your device unattended in public places so you can protect it from physical theft.
  6. Keep your software up to date
    Update your operating system and security software regularly to improve your device’s security.
  7. Be aware of what you click on
    Be aware of what links you click on and where they’re taking you. Do not click on any suspicious links.
