Today, mobile devices (smartphones, laptop computers, and tablets) are always available to you everywhere you go and are used for business, travel entertainment, or for different purposes. These devices allow you to easily connect to the world around you. However, mobile phishing has been a trending method for cybercriminals who seek financial gains. Therefore, your phishing protection tool should also include mobile devices which contain important data; within these devices, you carry much information such as people, photos, videos, locations, health and financial data. In this context, it is very important to use your portable devices safely and avoid mobile phishing attacks.

Securing Mobile Devices
1- Know WiFi Points
Public wireless networks and mobile data sharing points are not secure. A malicious person connected to them can see what you are doing potentially in your mobile device. In this context, limit what you want to do on public open WiFi networks, especially avoid accessing important accounts such as email and financial services. If necessary, you should use a virtual private network (VPN) or personal/mobile hotspot for phishing protection.
2- Your machine should be clean
Keep Your Mobile Devices and Applications Up-to-Date to avoid mobile phishing. Your mobile devices are as vulnerable as your PCs or laptops. One of the best defences against viruses, malware and other online threats is the latest security software, web browsers and operating systems.
3- Delete When Your Work is Over
We reduce most of our applications to specific goals such as “vacation planning” and then we do not need these applications. There may also be a lot of applications that are needed in the future and not used at the moment. For this reason, for phishing protection, it is a good security measure to delete all applications that you do not use.
