Personal Information and Data Security
The use of some functions or third-party applications on your
device could result in your personal information and data
being lost or becoming accessible to others. Several
measures are recommended to help you protect personal
and confidential information.
>
Place your device in a safe area to prevent it from
unauthorized use.
>
Set your device screen to lock and create a password
or unlock pattern to open it.
>
Periodically back up personal information kept on your
memory card, or stored in your device memory. If you
change to a different device, be sure to move or delete
any personal information on your old device.
>
If you are worried about viruses when you receive
messages or emails from a stranger, you can delete
them without opening them.
>
If you use your device to browse the Internet, avoid
websites that might pose a security risk to avoid theft of
your personal information.
>
If you use services such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, set
passwords for these services to prevent unauthorized
access. When these services are not in use, turn them
off.
>
Install or upgrade device security software and
regularly scan for viruses.
>
Be sure to obtain third-party applications from a
legitimate source. Downloaded third-party applications
should be scanned for viruses.
>
Install security software or patches released by Huawei
or third-party application providers.
