1 Use strong passwords

One of the simplest and most important mobile security solutions is to use strong passwords for your device and your accounts. A strong password is long, complex, and unique, and it should not contain any personal or predictable information. You can use a password manager app to generate and store your passwords securely. You should also enable biometric authentication, such as fingerprint or face recognition, for an extra layer of protection.

Personally, I don't trust the password management apps, so I made an algorithm for my passwords. So some characters are the same for each password, and some characters are unique to the app or website. Makes it much easier to remember passwords, without storing them anywhere, or trusting an outside party. (Zero-trust policy)

It's always necessary to use a strong, complex password. But, due to the evolving nature of modern threats, it's even more important to add an extra layer of authentication, such as MFA or biometrics.

2 Update your software

Another essential mobile security solution is to update your software regularly. Software updates often contain security patches that fix vulnerabilities and bugs that hackers can exploit. You should enable automatic updates for your operating system, apps, and antivirus software, and check for updates manually if needed. You should also avoid downloading apps from unknown or untrusted sources, and delete any apps that you don't use or need.

When using an MDM solution, it also provides the feature to automatically update most applications. However, for non-supported applications, the monitoring screen throws an alert for outdated applications.

3 Encrypt your data

Encryption is a mobile security solution that scrambles your data and makes it unreadable to anyone who doesn't have the key to decrypt it. Encryption can protect your data in case your device is lost, stolen, or hacked. You can encrypt your data by using the built-in encryption feature on your device, or by using a third-party encryption app. You should also encrypt your backups, cloud storage, and removable media.

That's also a part of Built-in MDM policy to encrypt your drive and secure your data through Bitlocker. And incase if your device stolen or lost you can wipe out the data with just one-click on MDM portal.

4 Use a VPN

A VPN, or virtual private network, is a mobile security solution that creates a secure and encrypted connection between your device and a remote server. A VPN can protect your online privacy and security by hiding your IP address, location, and browsing activity from hackers, ISPs, and advertisers. You should use a VPN whenever you connect to public or unsecured Wi-Fi networks, or when you access sensitive or restricted content online.

Imagine your internet activity like sending postcards. Public Wi-Fi is like mailing them open – anyone can read them! A VPN is like sending postcards in sealed envelopes through a secret tunnel. The postman (websites) only sees the tunnel entrance (VPN server), not your address. Your data stays hidden and safe, even on risky networks. So, use a VPN for private browsing, secure Wi-Fi, and accessing blocked content.

5 Beware of phishing

Phishing is a common cyberattack that tries to trick you into revealing your personal or financial information, or clicking on malicious links or attachments. Phishing can happen through email, text, phone, or social media, and it can target your mobile device as well as your computer. You can avoid phishing by being cautious and skeptical of any messages that ask for your details, offer you something too good to be true, or urge you to act quickly.

6 Educate yourself

The last but not least mobile security solution is to educate yourself about the latest cyber threats and trends. You can stay informed by reading reputable sources, following experts, and joining communities that share mobile security tips and advice. You can also test your mobile security knowledge and skills by taking quizzes, courses, or challenges online. By learning more about mobile security, you can improve your awareness and confidence, and reduce your risk of becoming a victim.
