To prevent information leakage, what else should be paid attention to besides using mobile phone shielding cabinets?

With the rise of the mobile Internet era, the number of smartphone users has increased significantly. While smartphones have brought great convenience to our work and life, security and confidentiality issues have become increasingly prominent. It is crucial to recognize the threats to security and confidentiality and take appropriate measures to prevent smartphone data leakage.

In response to the security and confidentiality issues of mobile phones, the government has issued relevant management regulations. For example, if a meeting or similar event involves state secrets, the organizer must implement confidentiality measures, provide confidentiality education to participants, and put forward specific requirements, such as using cell phone signal jammers.

For ordinary users, while complying with relevant laws and regulations, they must enhance their awareness of security and confidentiality and understand the risks of smartphone data leakage. It is recommended to develop the following safe usage habits:

1. Avoid using mobile phones given by others, do not buy second-hand or knock-off mobile phones, and choose mobile phones purchased through formal channels.
2. Avoid discussing confidential information during mobile phone calls, and avoid using public Wi-Fi and wireless networks to transmit sensitive data.
3. Do not bring mobile phones into confidential areas or meetings, and avoid sending, receiving or storing confidential or work-sensitive information on your mobile phone.
4. Download software only from trusted app stores using secure channels. Avoid installing modified software, such as “cracked” or “ad-free” versions, and avoid installing unknown software without proper verification.
5. Be cautious when visiting unfamiliar websites and avoid clicking on messages, emails, images, videos, or other content from unknown sources.
6. Avoid connecting your phone’s data cable to a confidential computer, including for charging.

By taking these precautions and using your phone responsibly, individuals can mitigate the risk of information leakage and enhance the security and confidentiality of their smartphones.
