unauthorized use.

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.

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.

legitimate source. Downloaded third-party applications

should be scanned for viruses.

or third-party application providers.

• Some applications require and transmit location

information. As a result, a third-party may be able to

share your location information.
