These days, we use apps on our smartphones for literally everything. While awesome, and in some cases critical to our jobs, apps can access and use an incredible amount of our personal information without our knowledge or permission! Allowing our apps control over our personal information can open us up to data insecurity or even identity theft, but there are ways we can protect ourselves.
To show Canadians how to use their mobile apps safely, Telus and Public Safety Canada have come together and created the #BeAppSafe initiative. From now through to the end of March they will be providing some helpful resources, such as these tips and this fun quiz where you can enter to win one of 10 tablets.
I’d encourage everyone to take a look at this as I think it pays to #BeAppSafe.
