問題詳情：

    Security—for the information on your smart phone, as well as for the phone itself—is a hot topic these truth is that you're packing a lot of sensitive information on your phone, and you should keep it safe.

    When it comes to physical security, iPhone users would do well to download Find My iPhone, a free app from Apple that allows you to visit a website and see your (lost, stolen or misplaced) phone on the can then sound an alarm, send a message that will pop up on its screen, lock the phone or erase all your data.

    Android does not have an exact equivalent(等價物), but there are plenty of alternatives.A free app called Lookout offers the find­my­phone paid version allows you to wipe the data from your phone remotely.

    Then there is your coffee shop's Wi­Fi ne with minimal technical expert skill can snoop on(窺視) people using shared wireless networks, harvesting passwords and other personal out will caution you when you've logged on to an insecure network, but cannot protect you once you're there.

    In order to protect yourself on such networks, you can use a virtual private network, or turns all your activity into nonsense to anyone trying to read along with you from across also keeps websites from tracking you and, if you're travelling, allows you to get access to sites that may be blocked in other countries.

    If you have an iPhone, the simplest VPN app is probably Hotspot Shield, whose distinguishing feature is said to be that it automatically kicks in each time you start browsing (瀏覽), as opposed to other VPN apps that require you to start them up manually(手動地)．This matters, because even if you decide you want a VPN app, you want to spend approximately zero time thinking about the most part, that was true of Hotspot Shield, though occasionally it took a while to connect or temporarily lost connection without warning.I found myself having to turn the app on and off sometimes, which involved setting my phone constantly.

    If even reading about the settings on your phone drive you crazy, then it is probably best to stay away from a VPN if you're the type who can't resist checking your bank balance from your corner bar, the hassle(麻煩) may be preferable to the risk.
