IOS Privacy and Data Security Tips that You Should Know!
As the stats speak: More than 4.61 billion mobile phone users globally exist as you read this
article and the probability is more than 6 billion at the end of 2019, out of which most of
them are iOS users.
iOS smart phones are becoming an integral part of our everyday work life – which is why it’s
highly important to stay ahead of the changing world. Have a look at the stats table below;
(Source: statista.com)
More than 77% Australians and 72% USA people are using mobile phones, regularly. Overall
68% users are using their smart phones almost all the time where as 18 % USA users make
payments and invoice generation through mobile.

According to “Jerry Dischler”, Vice President of Product Management forGoogle
AdWords
"More Google searches take place on mobile devices than on computers in
10 countries including the U.S. and Japan".
(Source: adwords.googleblog.com)
Now, going with the above statistics, it’s vital to maintain the privacy and security of data in
smart phones. Data privacy on mobile devices can be possible only with the right procedure
of settings.
Most of the iOS mobile users trust on this platform to transact with their important data
such as email communications, pictures and important documents.
Apple has come up with some quick options to run apps in iOS device with high-level
security and it’s important that users know these details as ignoring this, might impact on
loosing precious data thus loosing protection on their devices.
In this article, I am going to tell you some of the privacy and data security tips on iOS device.
Here we go…
1. Handle with care and Use common sense
There is no such app to protect your phone data from yourself – yes, that’s true.
Link jacking helps accessing the confidential data’s in the hands of stranger. More than 90%
smart phone users are facing such types of problems. So, before accessing any app or link
you must think once –
On exactly what are you accessing!
What is the medium to access the data!
Who is sending the data’s and the data location (yes, that very important)!
Do avoid hitting on pop-up links that might take you to links/websites, compromising your
data privacy.

2. Avoid HTTP and Select HTTPS for Transaction
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is the language of internet, used communication on the
World Wide Web.
HTTPS (something like https://www.example.com) is the secure communication way, which
encrypts the data between ends and helps in establishing a secure transaction – hence no
chance of middle attacks.
Therefore, you need to transact only with HTTPS-enabled sites to protect your private
data’s.
3. Enable Device Security
Using the built-in setting app in iOS the touch ID and pass code allow changing the longer
numeric, alphanumeric, or custom pass code. Once you enable the biometric fingerprint
reader, iOS keeps the data and credentials in a secure reserve until it gets the correct
fingerprint.
To access web based accounts and services you have to authenticate the extra layers of
securities that provides better security and protection from unauthorized access to your
devices.
4. Take Backups Regularly
Regular backups of all your personal data are very easy in iOS devices with wireless
communication, which are compatible with iCloud or SpiderOak. IOS device also supports
encrypted backups using iTunes, that also helps in the formation and controlling of
encrypted backups.
5. Update Device with latest iOS updates
Updating device OS with latest updates are always helpful and it’s very much important for
the protection of your personal data.
The jailbreaking process was designed to "free your iOS device from
within the confines of Apple's walled garden."
(Source: techrepublic.com)
From the Resource Library of Andolasoft.Inc | Web and Mobile App Development Company
It’s too very imperative to use secure and high quality iOS apps which help in protecting
your device as well – that brings in the “app design factor”, which is also as important as
other factors.
You can check my previous article on how you can design amazing iOS apps: Most Effective
Tactics to Design Amazing iOS Apps
Share your idea with comments on iOS security and we will be happy to respond… Good day
and a great year ahead.
