someone will steal your data

we are more and more complacent with our use of mobile devices and payment strategies. our finance and money information is on our mobile device. Verizon researchers take a look at the near future of secutiry breaches. summarized here in this article at net-security.org

your greatest risks are stolen smartphone, weak password, unencrypted phone, fraud and deception tailored to your life. phishing becomes more refined, more accurate, more plausible. many will remeber the "we lost our passport scenario".

give your self a better password today. consider using only guest checkouts for online purchases. create habits that avoid the chance for losing your phone.

then having read the article consider how much corporations must do to achieve their opwn security. it can't be perfect.
