Private Text & Call

Celebrities and politicians aren’t the only ones who have to worry about hackers breaking into their phones. We all use our phones for many important tasks. Aside from the obvious ones – making  a phone call and sending text messages– we use our phones to take photos and videos, store documents and passwords and even to do our banking. Hackers can break into our phone by intercepting our phone calls and texts or hacking into the data stored on our phones. Here are 5 tips to help  protect your phone : Use strong passwords Avoid using obvious passwords like birthdays, the name of your pet or spouse, consecutive number sequences like “12345” or repeated numbers like “88888”.

Recent news reports have shown vulnerabilities in popular messaging apps due to the network SS7 bug allowing hackers to assume a user’s phone number and take over their account.
