When it comes to protecting personal stuff, the majority of people are concerned about security; 1 in 4 people would even prefer to share their toothbrush over their phone, a recent survey by Motorola Mobility found.
Think about it…these days just about everything can be done from your phone. Whether it’s going through work email or moving money, shopping from an online store or adding pictures that only friends should see, it can be done from the palm of your hand.
With so much being done with phones, we wanted to know what you’re doing to protect them. We talked with 1,000 smartphone owners who use their devices for personal and professional purposes, the so-called prosumers. We found that even though these people are concerned with security, they’re not doing enough to protect themselves:
- Forty-five percent confess they’ve never installed security applications on their smartphones
- More than one third store critical personal information, like email passwords and bank account numbers, on their smartphones
- Nearly half have of respondents log into an unsecured wireless network using their smartphone
- Only 40 percent would reset their work email password if they lost their phone
Your phone may have more details about your life than you realize, what are you doing to protect it?
If you’ve thought about security but don’t know where to start, we can help. Motorola has a series of devices that are Business Ready, which means they have several advanced security features, like remote wipe. The latest phones that are Business Ready include: DROID RAZR by Motorola, DROID BIONIC by Motorola, and Motorola Photon 4G.
