Smartphones have become commonplace in today’s world, with many of us now able to make and receive calls, check emails, navigate our way around a location, update our social media profiles and order takeaway food on the one device. However, the downside of all of this software is that it is ripe for picking for unwanted spies and hackers. Our personal information can easily be accessed if we do not take preventative measures to protect it adequately.

This infographic by Neon SMS (www.neonsms.ie) outlines who is most likely to track your smartphone, as well as detailing some of the ways in which your phone can be tracked. If you notice any unusual signs such as a rapidly draining battery, unexpected shutdowns, sounds while it is switched off, suspicious files or overheating, this could mean that your phone is being spied on by a spy or hacker.

You wouldn’t knowingly grant such access to random strangers, so why leave yourself open to spying or hacking? With a little education on safeguarding your smartphone’s data and knowing the warning signs to watch out for, you can protect your phone from being tracked by someone who has no right to access it.
