Make sure only things you want are uploaded/accessible
Cloud Check
There are many different versions of the OS (Operating System) so this check will be generic i.e Android version/iOS version.
This check is carried out:
- To see what permissions are set up i.e is the device set up to automatically connect to cloud services?
- To see which things (if any) are being automatically uploaded
- To think about issues related to cloud services ie how can they trust them? What rights do/don’t they have?
- Unlock device using pin/password. No password? Set one – what would happen if device gets lost or stolen?
- Go to Settings >
- Check the permissions for each area
- Strong passwords are really important – do you have strong passwords?
