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 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 unauthorized use.
Set your device screen to lock and create a password or unlock pattern to
unlock it.
Periodically back up personal information kept on your SIM/USIM 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 unauthorized 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.
