Turn off and turn on smartphones at least once every day – this is what Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister of Australia, asks the population to do. It turns out that tech experts agree with the prime minister Watchman from his summary.
It is the responsibility of every one of us. It’s simple: Turn off your phone for five minutes every night. For those of you watching this, do this every 24 hours, do this while brushing your teeth, or whatever you’re doing.
said the Australian Prime Minister.
This is not new advice. In 2020, the US National Security Agency issued guidelines for mobile security, which include restarting smartphones once a week to prevent hacker attacks.
While restarting every day may seem like a frivolous measure, experts say it can help in some cases.
Given how much we use smartphones in our lives, we know of cases where people did not turn off their phones for a whole year.
– He added in an interview with the newspaper, emphasizing that those who depend on their phone alarm clock, for example, can keep their device on 24 hours a day.
It may not protect you completely, but rebooting can make it more difficult for hackers.
Of course, this is not true in cases where it is
- Hackers want to get a specific person’s data,
- Or if we have malware installed on our devices that can run on our devices even when it is turned off.
