Cell Phone

Mobile phones are not the latest version of communication technology but it is still common, and people are like using them. But as the other technical equipment there is a possibility to heck it: steal data, start phone calls and write SMS. Also download viruses. Companies are on the way to create relatively secure operating systems but trickery and social engineering continue to manipulate people. For example, cyber criminals disguise files to make them look like interesting freeware. Bluetooth users may find themselves asked: "Would you like to install this program now?" When they click "no," the question persists. The reason why people get infected: because they repeatedly click 'no' and obviously 'no' doesn't work and so they click 'yes' and they get infected. How you can prevent? Just walk away if you meet the question and then go into your Bluetooth settings and disable Bluetooth completely or make it hidden for all other devices.
At the same time there are users who ignore the security warnings and therefore they install malware to their phones. Also it is possible that some problems may be caused by unclear instructions on the users interface. Phone user’s ignorance is the biggest reason of having problems with their phones.

Data Protection

Nowadays our personal details are known to a number of people and that number is increasing by time. The reason is: we use computers as a storage, the whole world is in computers. Our personal data are at the authorities, at bank, at school, at police stations and at working place. The data protection is very important in these cases. These information are not allowed to use illegally. If yes, it is against the law and the offender should be punished. Employers and authorities should have a limit of using those information as well.
For example an employer can monitor its staff whether they activity is legal because the employer is responsible for the acts and the omissions. Although monitoring must be for a specific purpose and not involve the retention of more data than is appropriate. As for the authorities: there is a regulation which empowers "designated persons" to demand communications data from network or postal operators. This fundamental aim is to obtain data which may assist to stop organised crime. Communications data is also known as "traffic data":
1. senders and addressees of emails
2. file size of emails and attachments
3. times and duration of phone calls
4. location data on mobile phone users
5. URL's of websites visited
6. newsgroups accessed; and
7. phone no.'s sending and receiving faxes.

Deploy Anti-virus Program

Keeping safe computers of our enterprise from viruses is not as simple as installing an anti-virus program anymore. Viruses have become much more complex and it is able to enter to our network from many vectors. It can come from infected home computers or email which containing malware or from users who surfing inappropriate web sites.
If we deploy anti-virus program to our computer we must be sure that the software/hardware and the processes will ensure its effectiveness. And we should keep updating the anti-virus program
