Brief Description:
Be Cautious with Public Charging Stations: Avoid using public charging stations or USB ports, as they can pose security risks. Instead, use your charger and plug it into a power outlet.
Secure Your Smartphones and Tablets: Enable biometric or PIN-based locking for your smartphones and tablets. Disable notifications on your lock screen to prevent potential snooping.
Protect Your Laptop Bag: Use a lock or cable to secure your laptop bag when in public places. It makes it harder for thieves to grab and run.
Avoid Leaving Devices in Vehicles: Never leave valuable devices in an unattended vehicle. Car break-ins are common, and thieves often target electronic gadgets.
Secure Your Accessories: If you use external devices like external hard drives or USB flash drives, keep them locked or secured when not in use. These devices may contain sensitive data.
Use Device Tracking Software: Install and activate anti-theft and tracking software on your devices. These programs can help locate your device and, in some cases, take photos or screenshots of unauthorized users.
