Alert for phone users: one image risk
Digital security experts have warned against storing images of official documents such as ID cards, passports, driver's licenses, and bank cards within the phone's photo gallery without protection. Such images may be vulnerable to theft or hacking, risking exposure of sensitive information like national ID numbers, passport details, or banking data to theft or impersonation. Experts recommend using security measures such as encrypted folders, password- or fingerprint-protected apps, and secure cloud services. They also advise deleting these images after they are no longer needed and avoiding sending them via messaging apps unless absolutely necessary. Additionally, experts emphasize the importance of enabling screen lock, encrypting the phone, and using two-factor authentication to protect personal data.
