1
00:00:00,780 --> 00:00:06,990
So there's also, you know, mobile hacking with the URLs similar to PCs, mobile devices are commonly

2
00:00:06,990 --> 00:00:09,990
compromised through using malicious URLs.

3
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:14,950
So you might get a text from a random number, like I said before, that, hey, your payment was declined.

4
00:00:15,540 --> 00:00:17,910
Please click here you your payment information.

5
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:25,200
This is pretty typical with mobile phones and it's just referred to as smushing or estimate's phishing.

6
00:00:25,290 --> 00:00:31,710
Please avoid clicking any suspicious links via text that you did not expect and they might come from

7
00:00:31,710 --> 00:00:33,880
our numbers and their contact information.

8
00:00:33,900 --> 00:00:34,900
Those are red flags.

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:36,930
Please do not click these links or you will.

10
00:00:36,930 --> 00:00:37,700
Something will happen.

11
00:00:38,970 --> 00:00:46,110
Some mobile vulnerabilities and countermeasures, just like with computers, mobile devices face the

12
00:00:46,110 --> 00:00:53,030
constant threat of new vulnerabilities, popping up operating systems and software and, you know,

13
00:00:53,110 --> 00:00:58,920
installing a device constantly have security patches being pushed out and also developed at the same

14
00:00:58,920 --> 00:00:59,490
time.

15
00:00:59,970 --> 00:01:06,450
When bodies are discovered, mobile devices are vulnerable to malware, to contrary to some people's

16
00:01:06,450 --> 00:01:06,930
beliefs.

17
00:01:07,380 --> 00:01:09,930
So you need to take care and make sure that your device is protected.

18
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:16,710
So a couple of countermeasures that you can take include installing a good malware program on your phone

19
00:01:16,710 --> 00:01:18,150
like Biddeford or Perski.

20
00:01:18,150 --> 00:01:20,490
They are free and they will protect you.

21
00:01:20,490 --> 00:01:26,280
Configure your apps to always allow auto updates, because this is going to allow you, instead of letting

22
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:32,550
you know an application has a serious vulnerability, sit on your phone and updated for six months.

23
00:01:32,730 --> 00:01:35,610
Set your ass off to auto update so you don't have to worry about it.

24
00:01:35,610 --> 00:01:41,640
When the developers push out a patch to fix the security issue, you will get on your phone, make sure

25
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,900
also that you install the latest OS patches when they're released.

26
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:50,880
Usually you're you're going to get a notification like, hey, the newest version of Android, hey,

27
00:01:50,910 --> 00:01:56,640
the security patches out, install those right when you see that, because the longer you wait, the

28
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,590
more vulnerable you possibly are.

29
00:01:58,770 --> 00:02:01,760
And trust me, you're more vulnerable than you think you are.

30
00:02:01,860 --> 00:02:02,700
The mobile device.
