Every day you add more and more information to your phone. Each day, it becomes a more complete digital representation of you. Bank accounts, the PayPal app, even password managers - they're all there, along with social media accounts, photos… the list goes on.
The implication is clear. Your phone represents a massive risk to your personal privacy and your identity. Once stolen, a phone can be mined for data that can then be used to steal your identity, making you a victim of ID fraud.
The first step in minimising identity theft via your smartphone is to make it difficult to steal.
