Personal Information and Data
Security
The use of some functions or third-party applications on your
device could result in your personal information and data being
lost or becoming accessible to others. Several measures are
recommended to help you protect personal and confidential
information.
• Place your device in a safe area to prevent it from
unauthorised use.
• Set your device screen to lock and create a password or
unlock pattern to open it.
• Periodically back up personal information kept on your SIM/
UIM card, memory card, or stored in your device memory. If
you change to a different device, be sure to move or delete
any personal information on your old device.
• If you are worried about viruses when you receive messages
or emails from a stranger, you can delete them without
opening them.
• If you use your device to browse the Internet, avoid websites
that might pose a security risk to avoid theft of your personal
information.
• If you use services such as Wi-Fi tether or Bluetooth, set
passwords for these services to prevent unauthorised
access. When these services are not in use, turn them off.
• Install or upgrade device security software and regularly scan
for viruses.
• Be sure to obtain third-party applications from a legitimate
source. Downloaded third-party applications should be
scanned for viruses.
