如何防範手機黑客 教您幾個妙招(中)

USE ENCRYPTION

使用加密功能

Much to the FBI's displeasure, iPhones running at least iOS 8 offer full-disk encryption by default.

更讓聯邦調查局頭疼的是，iPhone從iOS8系統版本開始，默認爲全磁盤提供加密功能。

That means that the information stored on the phone can't be extracted - by authorities or by hackers - and read on another computer.

這意味着，無論政府或者黑客，都無法在另一臺電腦上讀取手機所儲存的信息。

If the phone isn't unlocked first, any information obtained would be scrambled and unreadable.

如果手機沒有被解鎖，從中獲取的任何信息都是不可讀的亂碼。

With Android, however, you typically have to turn that on in the settings.

對於安卓系統，你得在設置中開啓加密功能。

Google's policy requires many phones with the latest version of Android, including its own Nexus phones, to offer encryption by default.

針對默認加密服務，谷歌的政策要求手機安裝最新安卓系統，包括谷歌自己的Nexus手機，內附加密升級版軟件。

But, according to Google, only 2.3 percent of active Android devices currently are running that version.

但據谷歌數據統計，目前只有2.3%的安卓活躍用戶在使用該版本。

SET UP DEVICE FINDERS

設置手機尋找功能

Find My iPhone isn't just for finding your phone in the couch cushions.

“查找我的iPhone”功能並不是在沙發墊上找手機那麼簡單。

If your device disappears, you can put it in Lost Mode. That locks your screen with a passcode, if it isn't already, and lets you display a custom message with a phone number to help you get it back.

如果手機不見了，您可以通過密碼將其設置成丟失模式，鎖定手機。鎖定前，您還可以在自己的iPhone上顯示用來取得聯繫的電話號碼，幫助找回手機。

The app comes with iPhones, but you need to set it up before you lose your phone. Look for the Find iPhone app in the Extras folder.

雖然這項應用程序是iPhone自帶的，但是你得在手機丟失前設置好。打開Extras文件夾，即可找到Find iPhone應用。

Meanwhile, Activation Lock makes it harder for thieves to sell your device.

與此同時，有了激活鎖定功能，小偷也很難將贓物賣出。

The phone becomes unusable - it can't be reactivated - without knowing its Apple ID. The feature kicks in automatically on phones running at least iOS 7.

不知道蘋果賬戶的ID和密碼，就無法重新激活使用手機。iOS7系統版本以上的iPhone都自帶這項功能。

If all else fails, you can remotely wipe the phone's data.

如果上述嘗試都已失敗，那麼您只好遠程抹掉手機數據。

While your information will be lost, at least it won't end up in the hands of a nefarious person.

哪怕手機信息全沒了，也比落在壞人手裏強。

There isn't anything comparable built into Android phones, but Google's Android Device Manager app, along with a handful of others made by third parties, can be downloaded for free from the Google Play app store.

雖然安卓系統目前沒有類似功能，但谷歌的“安卓設備管理器”應用和第三方出品的一些其他軟件也能發揮一定作用。這些應用可從谷歌官方電子市場免費下載。
