<p><a href="https://signhash.digital/">SignHash</a> is a lightweight web tool designed to prove that a document existed at a specific point in time and hasn’t been altered since. Rather than functioning as a traditional e-signature platform, it focuses on document integrity by creating a cryptographic hash of a file and anchoring that fingerprint in a tamper-evident record, often using blockchain technology. The result is a verifiable way to demonstrate authenticity without storing or exposing the document itself.</p>



<h2>Backed by the Blockchain</h2>



<p>One of SignHash’s biggest strengths is its simplicity and privacy-first approach. Because only a hash of the document is recorded, the original file never needs to be uploaded or retained, which is appealing for sensitive or proprietary materials. This makes it especially useful for creators, developers, and professionals who want proof of authorship, version history, or chain of custody without relying on centralized storage. Any future change to the document would immediately break the hash match, making tampering easy to detect.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="534" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/signhash2-1024x534.png" alt="" class="wp-image-40050" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/signhash2-1024x534.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/signhash2-300x157.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/signhash2-768x401.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/signhash2-696x363.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/signhash2-1068x557.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/signhash2.png 1221w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>That said, SignHash isn’t meant to replace legal notarization or full electronic signature platforms. It doesn’t verify signer identity or capture intent in the way tools like DocuSign do, and its legal weight depends on how courts or jurisdictions interpret cryptographic timestamping. It works best as a supporting layer of proof rather than a complete signing or contract workflow.</p>



<p>The best part?  <a href="https://signhash.digital/#pricing">The cost</a>.  SignHash doesn&#8217;t rope you into subscriptions or contracts. You pay per document, and it&#8217;s less than $5. Imagine getting full legal control over a document for less than $5?</p>



<h2>SignHash is (Probably) The Future </h2>



<p>Overall, SignHash fills a specific but valuable niche. If your goal is to prove that a document hasn’t changed since a certain moment—especially while keeping the contents private—it’s a clean, focused solution. For businesses that need formal signatures, identity verification, or multi-party approval flows, it’s better seen as a complement to traditional e-signature tools rather than a replacement.</p>

<p>Greetings friends! Privacy is one of the most important issues when you lend your phone to someone. Commonly, we feel uncomfortable because this person can invade our privacy. They may start checking things that they shouldn&#8217;t, such as settings. For this, there is a solution that has been available since <a href="https://www.osradar.com/how-to-create-folders-on-your-android-device/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Android </a>4.2 Jelly Bean and has been refined over the years. We are talking about multiple users, also known as &#8220;second space&#8221;. In this way, we create an account for the person to whom we often lend our device, so that we do not have to worry about anything. In this article, we will show you how to create multiple users in Android 14.</p>



<h2>What are multiple users for?</h2>



<p>Multiple users are used to give third parties access to your Android device. Perfect if you want to limit the access that these people have to it. In this case, the second user will not be able to access all settings. As long as some of the spaces on the device are restricted by the administrator.</p>



<p>In this way, it is possible to separate the information from the regular user and protect it at all times. At the same time, the second user can use the phone with basic functions. Necessary if you need to make a call, send an e-mail, and do other things that can be done by the account created by the owner of the phone.</p>



<p>The limitation always starts from basic aspects, you will see a more limited desktop, having only a few applications. These include the phone, messages, and email (you need to log in to this service). Depending on what the administrator has configured, you may or may not be limited to other tasks.</p>



<h2>How to create multiple users in Android 14</h2>



<p>This process may vary slightly depending on the level of customization each phone has. However, it is essentially always the same. It depends on the manufacturer and model of the phone. That is what matters in the end.</p>



<p>For pure Android phones, such as the <a href="https://store.google.com/us/?hl=en-US&amp;regionRedirect=true" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Google Pixel</a>, all you need to do is follow the steps below:</p>



<h3>First step</h3>



<p>Go to the <em>settings </em>of your Android device</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="498" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_01-498x1024.jpg" alt="settings create multiple users in Android" class="wp-image-39870" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_01-498x1024.jpg 498w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_01-146x300.jpg 146w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_01-768x1579.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_01-747x1536.jpg 747w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_01-996x2048.jpg 996w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_01-696x1431.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_01-1068x2195.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_01.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px" /><figcaption>settings </figcaption></figure>



<h3>Second step</h3>



<p>Then go to the system section</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="498" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_02-498x1024.jpg" alt="system create multiple users in Android" class="wp-image-39871" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_02-498x1024.jpg 498w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_02-146x300.jpg 146w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_02-768x1579.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_02-747x1536.jpg 747w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_02-996x2048.jpg 996w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_02-696x1431.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_02-1068x2195.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_02.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px" /><figcaption>system </figcaption></figure>



<h3>Third step</h3>



<p>After that, tap on <em>&#8220;Multiple users&#8221;</em>.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="498" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_03-498x1024.png" alt="Multiple users create multiple users in Android" class="wp-image-39872" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_03-498x1024.png 498w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_03-146x300.png 146w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_03-768x1579.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_03-747x1536.png 747w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_03-996x2048.png 996w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_03-696x1431.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_03-1068x2195.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_03.png 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px" /><figcaption>Multiple users</figcaption></figure>



<h3>Fourth step</h3>



<p>Next, tap on <em>&#8220;Allow Multiple Users&#8221;</em>.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="498" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_04-498x1024.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39873" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_04-498x1024.png 498w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_04-146x300.png 146w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_04-768x1579.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_04-747x1536.png 747w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_04-996x2048.png 996w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_04-696x1431.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_04-1068x2195.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_04.png 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px" /><figcaption>Allow Multiple Users</figcaption></figure>



<h3>Fifth step</h3>



<p>Then select the <em>&#8220;Add user&#8221;</em> option. Then tap the <em>&#8220;Next&#8221;</em> button.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="498" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_05-498x1024.jpg" alt="Next" class="wp-image-39874" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_05-498x1024.jpg 498w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_05-146x300.jpg 146w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_05-768x1579.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_05-747x1536.jpg 747w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_05-996x2048.jpg 996w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_05-696x1431.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_05-1068x2195.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_05.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px" /><figcaption>Next</figcaption></figure>



<h3>Sixth step</h3>



<p>Finally, enter a name for the new user and tap the <em>&#8220;Done&#8221;</em> button. Remember that you can also grant permission to make calls and send SMS. This option is disabled by default.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="498" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_06-498x1024.png" alt="new user create multiple users in Android" class="wp-image-39875" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_06-498x1024.png 498w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_06-146x300.png 146w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_06-768x1579.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_06-747x1536.png 747w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_06-996x2048.png 996w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_06-696x1431.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_06-1068x2195.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/CMU_06.png 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px" /><figcaption>new user</figcaption></figure>



<p>From this point, you can tap the <em>&#8220;switch to new user&#8221;</em> button to enter the second space.</p>

<h2>How to create a guest account</h2>



<p>Another option that Android 14 gives you is the ability to create a guest account. This is the same as a multi-user account, with the only difference being that when the guest finishes his session, the second space is deleted and neither his data nor the applications he has installed are saved. This option is ideal if you want to lend your phone to a third person for a short period and do not want to create a permanent account. It does not take up any space on your device.</p>



<p>To activate the guest account, follow the steps below:</p>



<h3>First step</h3>



<p>Go to <em>Settings&gt;System&gt;Multiple users.</em></p>



<h3>Second step</h3>



<p>Then tap the <em>&#8220;Guest&#8221;</em> option. You will notice that the guest account is automatically created and the system invites you to switch to the guest account. That&#8217;s it!</p>

<p>Imagine this scenario: your computer is running slower than usual or the operating system is displaying random errors. It may happen that your web browser freezes, struggling to get rid of strange <a href="https://www.osradar.com/the-5-most-dangerous-types-of-malware/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">advertisements</a>. You may even be unable to access your documents. As a result, you are likely to suffer from a digital infection that prevents the regular use of your computer. In addition, it is likely to put your data, files, and perhaps something else at risk. For example, passwords and access to digital banking. It is best to be able to have options to <a href="https://coingeek.com/infamous-chisel-malware-threat-flagged-by-global-security-agencies/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">remove</a> malware.</p>



<p>Viruses, worms, Trojans, and other malicious specimens stalk computers and computer networks. Lately we suffer the introduction of malware of all types and for all platforms. In addition to data theft, cyber espionage and invasion of privacy. There has also been an increase in disinformation campaigns that end up posing an online risk. All this forces users and companies to take proactive measures to control them.</p>



<p>Major cybersecurity incidents highlight the fact that digital threats are becoming more and more dangerous. Indeed, they continue to increase in number and in the sophistication of their developments. Moreover, the situation is not going to improve as the industry continues to add billions of connected devices. Nor is it good news that phenomena such as BYOD and the hybrid work that is here to stay in the wake of the pandemic are increasing the number of vulnerable devices.</p>



<h2>How to remove malware from your PC</h2>



<p>Certainly, prevention is the first and foremost line of defense. However, it is not always possible to stay safe from infection. Additionally, any user will have had problems with malware at some point. Even if you have not been alerted by your security solution. If your personal computer has any of the symptoms, it&#8217;s time to take action immediately. Take a look at these 4 concrete steps as described below.</p>



<h3>Attempts to save files</h3>



<p>Backup copies are the greatest <em>lifesaver</em> to counteract any type of computer virus. Sometimes, even with some of them, such as Ransomware, they are the only solution. If you have not done it previously, you can try to save documents, photos, videos. In addition to any other type of personal or professional information that you cannot lose even if they are infected. Afterwards, you can try to recover them later on a clean system.</p>



<p>This group includes the most difficult ones, which will be those infected by the aforementioned Ransomware. Let&#8217;s remember that these usually involve encrypted files. So, you will be able to recover them when decryption tools are released. Of course, the goal is only to copy the files to a controlled external drive. Certainly, we should not run any of these files until they are cleaned because they can infect other computers.</p>



<p>To make these copies, we can use several methods. If you use Windows, it has a safe mode, also called <strong>Safe Mode</strong> or <strong>Advanced Boot</strong>. In this mode, it loads only the most basic drivers and services. Additionally, it is useful for finding and solving operating system problems that are not possible to fix in a standard boot. This is because this is where malicious code is typically loaded.</p>



<h3>Disinfect the computer</h3>



<p>Once we have tried to secure our essential files, it is time to start disinfection. However, it should be noted that this is not always possible, depending on the malware in question. There are times when there will be no choice but to perform a clean installation of the entire system and applications.</p>



<p>In cases of suspicion, the best option to remove malware from the PC is to use specialized antivirus rescue disks. This is an effective means. Indeed, a large majority of malware is loaded/hidden in memory, complicating its detection/removal once the operating system is booted.</p>



<p>Its operation is simple, just boot the computer with the created ransomware media. All will update the virus signature. Then, the program will start scanning and disinfecting the malware. From the file explorer of the Live CD, we will also be able to access the drive where the main system is installed. Useful if we want to delete a file. Also, we will be able to directly make the security copies that we saw in the previous section of the essential files.</p>



<h3>System recovery</h3>



<p>If the malware cleanup was effective, remove the rescue disk and try booting the computer as usual. If possible, install the best security solution available to you. Then check it again for viruses. There is also a good collection of very comprehensive free or commercial solutions here. If the system boots normally, check if all the applications you have installed are working properly. Also, drivers and drivers. Even if the operating system is clean and working, there may be damage.</p>



<p>It may happen that despite the above efforts, we have not been able to kill the infection. Consequently, the only thing left to do is to reinstall the operating system. It is possible that we have a recovery partition or system disks. Such as those offered by some manufacturers in their new equipment. In such a case, it will be the first thing to use to revert the equipment to its factory state.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="732" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal-1024x732.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39770" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal-1024x732.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal-300x214.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal-768x549.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal-696x498.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal-1068x763.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>We will be able to restore the operating system to factory settings using the same operating system tool. It is also a good option to use restore points. These are another simple alternative to using backups or a fresh installation. If none of the above works, it is time to perform a clean installation of the entire system. With this in mind, we will format the partition to make sure that the computer is virus free.</p>



<h3>Recovering files</h3>



<p>Finally, you can recover your data and applications. However, it is very advisable to thoroughly scan and disinfect the data files that you had previously backed up beforehand. Make sure they are clean before copying them back to your computer. Indeed, they could be the cause of the infection, and you may have to repeat the whole process again. It includes the revision of external USB units, another frequent way of virus camouflage.</p>



<h3>Prevents further damage</h3>



<p>The system partition is now clean. However, we must also check the rest of the partitions and the entire local network. Indeed, the virus could have arrived that way and re-infected the computer. You can check this with the rescue disks created earlier. In addition, you can also try with a security solution installed on the computer. Keep in mind that nowadays, it is difficult to keep a personal computer clean without any additional protection. If you use Windows, it is advisable to at least use Microsoft&#8217;s Defender, which is installed by default.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal2-1024x1024.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39771" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal2-1024x1024.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal2-300x300.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal2-150x150.png 150w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal2-768x768.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal2-696x696.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal2-1068x1068.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal2.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>It is also advisable to change passwords. A good part of current malware infects computers with the aim of obtaining access passwords. It is not unlikely that they are in the hands of third parties, even if your system is clean. Therefore, after an infection, it is highly recommended to change them. Particularly, the local ones for authentication in the operating system to those used in Internet services. Especially those for financial services or e-commerce. Great way to remove malware.</p>



<h3>Finally, take care of your cybersecurity</h3>



<p>Insist on prevention as the first and main line of defense. With this in mind, it is necessary to observe due caution in the websites we browse. We should also check the applications we install. Even the reception of e-mails and attachments. In the same way, we have to check the downloads or the use of social networks. It is necessary to look at the essential update of the operating system and applications or the use of a good security solution.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal3-1024x1024.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39772" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal3-1024x1024.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal3-300x300.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal3-150x150.png 150w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal3-768x768.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal3-696x696.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal3-1068x1068.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/mal3.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>We ask you to be extremely careful with Ransomware and Phishing. They are undoubtedly the two most used and dangerous types of attack at the client computer level. Most infections occur because the user opens a malicious application or program. Let&#8217;s remember that it can come from any source. Especially the usual ones such as a web browser (displaying adware, redirection to a malicious website… ). It is also plausible that the email that instead of being attached includes a link to Mega, Google Drive or Dropbox that leads to malware or messaging services in the case of mobile attacks, increasingly widespread.</p>



<p>A common feature of all Ransomware is that they block the operation of computers. To do this, they take over files with strong encryption and demand a <em>ransom</em> amount of money from the organization, company, or user to release them. The big problem is that once infected, there is no solution unless that particular type has been decrypted. The worst thing is that this usually takes years to happen and file recovery is complex. It is common to see it combined with phishing attacks. This is the second major threat and one for which extreme caution should also be exercised. Okay, so we&#8217;ve seen a few ways to remove malware.</p>

<p>Internet scams are everywhere. Indeed, we can be victims of scams that put our security and privacy at risk in different ways. In fact, we can receive an e-mail, for example, which is actually a phishing attack. Or, if we make a mistake, our data, and passwords could be stolen by simply sending an SMS. This is precisely what we are going to talk about in this article. We will explain how to detect if an SMS is a <a href="https://www.osradar.com/how-to-protect-your-social-media-accounts-from-hackers/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fraud</a> and can put our security at risk.</p>



<h2>Why do we receive fraudulent SMS?</h2>



<p>The first thing we must take into account when analyzing why we are receiving this type of messages is that practically in the totality of occasions they are sent massively. That is to say, to a great amount of people at the same time. This is for statistical reasons. In fact, for the scammers, the more people they send the SMS to, the more likely it is that someone will fall for them.</p>



<p>In addition to this, most of the people who receive these <a href="https://www.scamwatch.gov.au/types-of-scams/text-or-sms-scams" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">messages</a> do not know how to identify that they are false or that they are scam attempts. For this reason, in many occasions, they achieve their goal. In reality, what they are after is to get hold of our personal data. It can be to sell them or to impersonate our identity in some site, as we have already indicated above.</p>



<h2>What to look for</h2>



<p>We can be victims of many attacks by means of text messages on our cell phones. It must be taken into account that a few years ago it was possibly the most used means of communication in many cases. A way to send a short text to someone immediately. But nowadays, it is not very used by users. In fact, we really only receive SMS with verification codes, advertising and attempted attacks.</p>



<p>If we make mistakes with this type of messages that are actually fraud, we can put our security at risk. Not only will it affect the mobile device in question. In fact, it could also manage to steal personal data and passwords. A problem that is aggravated when it also asks us to download some kind of data. All this makes it essential to know how to recognize when an SMS can be a scam. In this way we will be alert, and we will not make mistakes that can impact us. Sometimes it may actually look like a legitimate message. However, there will always be certain details that can help us to see that it is a scam.</p>



<h3>It has a link (especially HTTP)</h3>



<p>One of the most common tests is when it carries a link. Normally, it is through this link that the attack is carried out. It can be a Phishing attack. It is there where they pretend that we log in to a service. However, it can also be a link to download a malicious file.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="724" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/sms-1024x724.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-39832" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/sms-1024x724.jpg 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/sms-300x212.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/sms-768x543.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/sms-696x492.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/sms-1068x755.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/sms.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>It is important to bear in mind that HTTP links (those that are not encrypted) are the most dangerous. Attackers will usually use this type of link. However, you can also encounter a fake page that is encrypted. Therefore, although it is a warning sign, you should not rule out the possibility that an HTTPS link is insecure.</p>



<h3>This link is shortened</h3>



<p>But beyond the fact that a link arrives, it is very common to find shortened links. They use this strategy to prevent us from really seeing what the address is and click on it. We should always avoid entering links that are shortened. In addition, we can make use of tools that allow us to know what the real address is without having to open it.</p>



<p>A short link does not necessarily mean that it will be insecure. However, it is true that they are widely used by hackers. Ultimately, what they do is hide everything else. We do not really see the URL to which it will direct us. Therefore, it is easier for us to end up entering a page.</p>



<p>For example, if it is a supposed message from the bank, perhaps the domain is totally different and has nothing to do with that bank. If we see that domain like that, we are less likely to access it. On the other hand, if we receive a URL hidden in a shortened link, we are more likely to make the mistake of opening it.</p>



<h3>It comes from a platform that we do not know</h3>



<p>A clear sign of a scam is when we receive a message that supposedly comes from a platform that we do not use. We are talking for example about a courier company that we are not expecting. Also, an SMS from a bank that we have never had an account with, etc.</p>



<p>Hackers usually take advantage of the Christmas or summer campaigns to send SMS from courier companies such as Amazon. It is also common for them to try with the main banks in case we have an account and fall into the trap.</p>



<p>But beware, if you receive a message from a platform you know, it does not mean that it is safe. In fact, it is very common that they use the name or brand of very popular services. For example, banks or online shopping platforms. In this case, they want to have a higher probability of success and get the victim to click.</p>



<h3>It is addressed in a generic way.</h3>



<p>Another proof that it can be a fraud is when that SMS is addressed in a generic way. That is, it is when we find messages that say <em>dear use</em>r and similar. They are not really addressed to the name of the person who receives it. Finally, this is a symptom that it may belong to a massive campaign.</p>



<p>It may happen that you think that the content of the message is totally irrelevant to us. Or you may think that there is no reason to have received it. Then it is most likely a fraudulent message. In the best case scenario, it could be an SMS sent by mistake that was addressed to someone else. However, whatever the case, we recommend that if you do not know the sender, simply delete it. This way you protect yourself from any risk.</p>



<p>However, phishing attacks are becoming more and more personal. Hackers are looking for more and more information about the victims. Therefore, they create links that are targeted with first and last names to increase the likelihood that we will click on them. You are more likely to click on a link that is addressed to your name. For example, indicating that an account you use has a problem and that you need to change something in the settings.</p>



<p>The latter is known as Spear Phishing. In this case, it would be addressed to a specific person, with name and possibly surname. Therefore, even if the SMS is in your name, you should verify that it is reliable. Hackers can collect information from victims in order to send more personalized messages and be successful.</p>



<h3>Use alert messages</h3>



<p>This type of messages that seek to deceive the victim usually contain warning messages. They tell us that our account is going to be suspended, that there has been an issue or similar. They seek to scare the victim. In this way, they will click on those links or carry out some action they ask for.</p>



<p>Undoubtedly, this is something very common among Phishing attacks. They tell us that something is wrong, that we must modify something in our account or carry out any step. Of course, all this as quickly as possible so that we do not have time to think and make mistakes. In this way, if they send it to many users at the same time, there may be someone clueless who falls into the trap. It is also possible that an elderly person might get nervous and think that they really need to do something as soon as possible to avoid having their account stolen. The worst thing is that it really is a trap.</p>



<h3>The sender&#8217;s number has a very long length</h3>



<p>In many occasions, we usually receive calls or SMS from long numbers. In addition, and these are typically from switchboards of companies such as electricity or telephone companies.</p>



<p>But we must take into account that this type of numbers often have a maximum of 10 digits. So, if we receive any SMS from a number that is longer than this, we should suspect that it is an attempt of scam. Since, in general, these numbers are typically generated internationally. Therefore, if we do not know the sender, it is best not to interact with the message.</p>



<h3>Grammar is not the best</h3>



<p>We can also look at the way the SMS is written. Typically, they regularly make grammatical errors, typing errors. They may even be translated from another language, etc. This is therefore another indication that the message we have received may be a scam and put our security at risk.</p>



<p>Whenever you see a message or any email of this type, you should run away. We must be very careful not to open links. In fact, it may be a scam that only seeks to collect data or steal passwords.</p>



<h3>We are asked to log in or provide data</h3>



<p>Usually these SMSes are intended to steal information and especially passwords. They are based on a phishing attack that seeks to gain the victim&#8217;s trust so that they log in or enter some kind of personal data. There is nothing fixed. Indeed, sometimes we will be taken to a page that pretends to be legitimate to log in. But sometimes we will be asked for a series of information.</p>



<p><a href="https://bet-bonusking.net/">https://bet-bonusking.net/</a><br><a href="https://bonuslistele.net/">https://bonuslistele.net/</a><br><a href="https://bestbonussites.com/">https://bestbonussites.com/</a></p>



<p>In short, these are some fairly common signs that we are facing a fraudulent text message, which seeks nothing more than to steal our data and thus compromise privacy. It is something that we can find on our mobile on many occasions. They especially pretend to be legitimate companies, banks and other platforms that users might trust.</p>

<p>Greetings friends! Spyware is malicious software that can collect the information you have stored on your phone, tablet, or computer to send it to a third party. Generally, it usually masquerades as an ordinary application so that you are not aware of its presence. <strong>A well-known example of Spyware is WebDetective, which compromised the information of more than 70.000 users.</strong> Because there are always reports that warn about the appearance of new malware and spyware. In this post, we will show you how to know if your <a href="https://www.osradar.com/4-google-privacy-settings-that-you-should-have-on-your-android/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Android </a>phone is infected with Spyware and how to fix it.</p>



<h2>How to tell if your Android phone was infected with Spyware</h2>



<p>Now that you know what Spyware is and why it can be so harmful. We can now explain how you can tell if your Android phone was infected by Spyware. The good news is that it&#8217;s not a difficult thing to do. It&#8217;s all a matter of knowing the signs that your phone is infected:</p>



<ul><li>Your phone gets very hot.</li><li>The apps you use every day run slower than normal and so does the operating system.</li><li>Your battery and mobile data last less than usual.</li><li>You get a lot of pop-up messages.</li><li>You have installed apps that you do not remember installed. Pay special attention to apps with the following names: mSpy, XNSPY, CocoSpy, or Hoverwatch.</li></ul>



<p>The last condition does not necessarily have to be met because this type of malware can disappear from the main screen to run in the background. Also, it does not necessarily have to have those particular names.</p>



<h2>How to remove Spyware on Android</h2>



<p>In case you have the signs that we have mentioned to you, your mobile is likely infected with spyware. In that case, you should do the following:</p>



<h3>First step</h3>



<p>Press the power button on your phone until you get the menu to turn it off or restart it.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW01-461x1024.jpg" alt="How to know if your Android phone is infected with Spyware and how to fix it." class="wp-image-39649" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW01-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW01-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW01-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW01-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW01-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW01-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW01-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW01.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption>How to know if your Android phone is infected with Spyware and how to fix it.</figcaption></figure>



<h3>Second step</h3>



<p>Then press and hold on the screen the option to turn off your smartphone until you see the <em>&#8220;Safe mode&#8221;</em> option. When you do that your phone will reboot. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW02-461x1024.jpg" alt="Safe mode know if your Android phone is infected" class="wp-image-39650" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW02-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW02-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW02-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW02-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW02-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW02-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW02-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW02.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption>Safe mode</figcaption></figure>



<p>On Xiaomi devices, the process is a bit different. Just turn off your device, Once it has turned on before the <a href="http://mi.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MIUI </a>logo appears, press the volume down button.</p>



<h3>Third step</h3>



<p>After that, the next thing is to go to the <em>&#8220;Settings&#8221;</em> section and then enter <em>&#8220;Applications&#8221;</em>. If you see any apps that you don&#8217;t remember installing, don&#8217;t hesitate to delete them. When you are done, restart your mobile to exit Safe Mode.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW03-461x1024.jpg" alt="Applications" class="wp-image-39651" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW03-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW03-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW03-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW03-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW03-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW03-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW03-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW03.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption>Applications</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Remove administrator privileges from unknown apps</h2>



<p>Sometimes, Spyware can be installed on your smartphone with administrator privileges. In this way, it has access to the operating system settings and even to the deletion of data. If you want to find out if you have Spyware with administrator privileges and also stop it from running, here&#8217;s what you need to do:</p>



<ul><li>Go to the <em>&#8220;Settings&#8221;</em> section, then to <em>&#8220;Security &amp; Privacy&#8221;</em> and then to <em>&#8220;Other security settings&#8221;</em>.</li><li>There you will see several options, but the one you should enter is one called <em>&#8220;Administrator Apps&#8221;</em>.</li><li>The last thing is to disable administrator privileges for any unknown app.</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW04-461x1024.jpg" alt="Remove administrator privileges from unknown apps" class="wp-image-39652" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW04-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW04-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW04-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW04-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW04-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW04-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW04-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/MLW04.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption>Remove administrator privileges from unknown apps</figcaption></figure>



<p>If there is any app that you have doubts about, search Google for information about that application to confirm if it is a system app or Spyware. We also recommend that you put your phone back into Safe Mode to try to remove that application. Remember to keep your phone updated with the latest version of the operating system. Which usually include security patches. Thanks for reading. Goodbye!</p>

<h2>Dr. Fone Data Eraser</h2>



<p>A complete wizard that automates the cleaning of your Smartphone. In a few clicks, it removes useless files from your phone. It also protects your privacy, with special phone transfer, data erase, and phone manager functions. Its interface is elegant and versatile, but it has a negative point as it consumes quite a lot of battery if left running in the background.</p>

<h2>App Cache Cleaner</h2>



<p>This app is much more modest, but it perfectly fulfills the function of other cleaner apps on Android. It is focused on the cache memory of applications, being able to delete files that are stored in each application. You can identify in a few seconds that apps consume memory and set reminders to make a scheduled cleaning. It is easy to use and in one touch does the cleaning, but only works with cache files.</p>

<h2>1 Tap Cleaner</h2>



<p>Its name is quite descriptive, it is a 1 tap app that cleans the cache, browsing history, and call log. Each of the sections is highlighted for precise and quick control when applying cleanings. The user can schedule customized cleaning intervals, seeking to maintain optimal performance of the mobile at all times. The app is easy to use and completely free but lacks additional functions. It is a one-off assistant to keep certain aspects of the phone clean and without overloading it with unnecessary files.</p>

<p>Hello friends! Surely you&#8217;ve ever wanted to block internet access to an app or game on your <a href="https://www.osradar.com/how-to-easily-connect-dualsense-ps5-controller-to-your-android-phone/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Android </a>device. Maybe you want to save mobile data and prevent an app from sending you annoying notifications. Block ads, or just protect your privacy. Whatever the reason. <strong>In this article we will explain how to block internet access from any app on Android.</strong> You can do it quickly and easily. There are several ways to block internet access from an app or game on Android. But the easiest and most effective. It is to use a third-party application that is responsible for managing network permissions on your device.</p>



<h2>How to block internet access for any application on Android with NetGuard</h2>



<p>There are many options available in Google Play. But in this case, we recommend NetGuard. It is a free, secure, reliable, and ad-free application. It allows you to control the Internet traffic of any app with a simple tap.</p>



<h3>First step</h3>



<p>To use NetGuard, you must first download and install it on your Android device by following the link below:</p>



<p><a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.faircode.netguard" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Google Play | NetGuard &#8211; No-Root Firewall</a></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_01-461x1024.jpg" alt="Google Play" class="wp-image-39794" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_01-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_01-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_01-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_01-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_01-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_01-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_01-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_01.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption>Google Play</figcaption></figure>



<h3>Second step</h3>



<p>Then open NetGuard on your Android and click <em>&#8220;I agree&#8221;</em> on the first prompt you see.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_02-461x1024.jpg" alt="NetGuard block internet access" class="wp-image-39795" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_02-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_02-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_02-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_02-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_02-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_02-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_02-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_02.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption>NetGuard </figcaption></figure>



<h3>Third step</h3>



<p>Activate the application by tapping the button in the upper left corner.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_03-461x1024.jpg" alt="Activate the application block internet access" class="wp-image-39796" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_03-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_03-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_03-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_03-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_03-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_03-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_03-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_03.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption>Activate the application</figcaption></figure>



<h3>Fourth step</h3>



<p>Next, tap <em>&#8220;ok&#8221;</em> as many times as necessary to allow <em>&#8220;NetGuard&#8221;</em> to create a VPN (Virtual Private Network) with which it can filter Internet traffic from applications.</p>

<h3>Fifth step</h3>



<p>You will also need to disable battery optimization for NetGuard (so it can run more consistently). You can do this by following the pop-up window that the application shows you or by going to <em>Settings&gt;Applications&gt;NetGuard&gt;Battery&gt;No restrictions</em>.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped"><ul class="blocks-gallery-grid"><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06-461x1024.jpg" alt="NetGuard " data-id="39799" data-full-url="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06.jpg" data-link="https://www.osradar.com/?attachment_id=39799" class="wp-image-39799" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_06.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption class="blocks-gallery-item__caption">NetGuard </figcaption></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07-461x1024.jpg" alt="No restrictions" data-id="39800" data-full-url="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07.jpg" data-link="https://www.osradar.com/?attachment_id=39800" class="wp-image-39800" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_07.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption class="blocks-gallery-item__caption">No restrictions</figcaption></figure></li></ul></figure>



<h3>Sixth step</h3>



<p>Finally, go back to <em>NetGuard </em>and disable Internet access for the applications you want by tapping the WiFi and Mobile Data icons. If the icon is green, Internet access is enabled, and if it is red, the application cannot use the Internet.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="461" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_08-461x1024.jpg" alt="NetGuard  block internet access" class="wp-image-39801" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_08-461x1024.jpg 461w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_08-135x300.jpg 135w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_08-768x1707.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_08-691x1536.jpg 691w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_08-922x2048.jpg 922w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_08-696x1547.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_08-1068x2373.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/BIA_08.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /><figcaption>NetGuard </figcaption></figure>



<p>Remember that you can change the permissions in NetGuard at any time. You can also configure other advanced options from the application&#8217;s settings menu. For example, you can create whitelists or blacklists of applications, set rules by time or network, view the data usage of each application, and much more.</p>



<h2>Is it safe to use NetGuard to block Internet access for an app or game on Android?</h2>



<p>By blocking Internet access to applications through a VPN. You might think that this method can be dangerous for your privacy. But don&#8217;t worry, NetGuard VPN does not connect to any external server or collect your data. It only serves to block Internet access to the applications you choose. It is also important to note that NetGuard is an open-source application (you can view its code on GitHub). This is a guarantee that the application is transparent, and secure and does not hide anything strange in its operation. Thank you for reading. Bye bye!</p>

<p>Sure, the email companies are always trying to outsmart those spam messages. But no matter the strategies they use, <strong>those emails still manage to sneak into our inboxes and mess up our day.&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>What makes things worse, sometimes the important emails we actually want to see still end up in that dreaded spam folder. So, <strong>let&#8217;s explore top 5 effective strategies to keep your inboxes secure</strong> — and spam-free.</p>



<h2><strong>1. Pick reputable email service providers</strong></h2>



<p>The frequency of receiving spam emails makes email users worldwide get creative with ways to stay safe. And to start with, one of the most obvious strategies to protect your email account is to <strong>use a trustworthy email service</strong>. Your choice of email provider affects how secure your mailbox is. Incoming mail is filtered by this provider&#8217;s strong security measures to help weed out spam email.</p>



<p>Incoming messages can also be restricted<strong> using filters </strong>depending on particular criteria, such as the subject line, the sender&#8217;s email address, or specified keywords. You can always delete or archive emails that come from blacklisted senders, or simply mark them as spam. This will educate your chosen email provider, and in the future it will archive emails from a suspicious sender without your knowledge.</p>



<p>Speaking of trustworthy email providers, these include such reputable names as Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, Zoho, AOL Mail, and other services. Among these, <strong>Outlook and Gmail are considered to have the most rigorous spam filters.</strong></p>



<h2><strong>2. Configure your privacy settings</strong></h2>



<p>By changing your email privacy settings, you can also stop receiving spam emails. If you wish to preserve your privacy, most email applications&#8217; default settings aren&#8217;t always sufficient.&nbsp;</p>



<p>But luckily, you can make your email settings stronger with some simple adjustments:</p>



<ul><li><strong>Privacy settings in Google. The privacy settings of your Google account</strong>, which cover all Google services including YouTube and Search, can be easily modified in Gmail. For managing your Google Account, click on your profile icon. You can decide whether to keep your history in these services, turn off personalized adverts, and change who has access to your information under the Data and Privacy area.</li></ul>



<ul><li><strong>Location tracking and advertising in Outlook/Yahoo. </strong>You may alter <strong>personalized advertising and location tracking </strong>in Outlook and Yahoo Mail by going to the Privacy dashboard in Outlook and the Privacy Controls in Yahoo.<br></li><li><strong>Two-factor authentication (all services).</strong> By enabling <strong>two-factor authentication and including a phone number </strong>and email for recovery, you may further strengthen the security of your email. This measure is available in all email service providers, but specific instructions for setting it up vary.</li></ul>



<h2><strong>3. Make an alias email for general use</strong></h2>



<p><strong>Making a separate email account </strong>that is just used for general purposes<strong> is one of the simplest ways to protect your primary one without any additional expenses. </strong>This will make sure that all of your crucial emails have already been pre-filtered to remove spam and undesirable messages.</p>



<p>You can easily join up for newsletters, subscriptions, and receive critical information for a limited time by having a separate email account, preventing it from getting mixed up with your primary inbox. By doing this, you can <strong>forget about the problem of having a full inbox</strong> and weeding through pointless emails to find those that are really important.</p>



<p>Now, there are <a href="https://selzy.com/en/blog/best-temporary-email/">various types of disposable email addresses</a>, and you should selected this type depending on your needs:<br></p>



<ul><li><strong>Throwaway email. </strong>This email type provides an instant and anonymous email address, which is <strong>ideal for receiving sign-up verification emails you may not need later. </strong>However, free services often only allow receiving messages, requiring a premium for sending emails.<br></li><li><strong>Forwarding address. </strong>This type offers an alternative to using temporary emails. It adds an extra layer of privacy by funneling incoming mail from another address to your primary email inbox. It also allows you to<strong> manage multiple email sources in one place</strong>, enhancing convenience. And lastly, it enables the addition of extra spam filters for added security.<br></li><li><strong>Alias address. </strong>While this email type is similar to a forwarding address, it is set up differently. Its built-in features with many email service providers let you create <strong>alternate email addresses within your existing server</strong>. An alias address also provides control over the emails you receive, allowing for automatic categorization and organization.<br></li></ul>



<p>You can select the type of email suited for your use — and never bother with spam in your personal email again.</p>



<h2><strong>4. Create secure passwords</strong></h2>



<p>Make long passwords with at least eight characters that are complicated. For a truly complex password, <strong>at least three of the following components should be present</strong>:</p>



<ul><li>Capital letters</li><li>Letters in lowercase</li><li>Numerology symbols</li><li>Special characters</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/UsckoXXdS7YVLeLH-xazSN1XQFMAgd1nujm1kVWVPwy5hU5B70Mp52FHd4gubqQy6KzbU7rQan7wuijCNJaz-l_CaZDh_Ivb70PM9mOEQRtyB6hcLxTwLUTSyhKahWCJirm1o723hrRWVpTDgDqr8pM" alt=""/></figure>



<p>Source: <a href="https://unsplash.com/photos/Lexcm-6FHRU">Unsplash</a></p>



<p>Sure thing, such obvious ideas as names of your pets, your address, name, and date of birth should not be used. However, if you still use them, <strong>consider replacing regular letters with capital or lowercase letters</strong> or special characters. For instance, instead of using &#8220;Jassie123&#8221; as a password, use &#8220;J@ss!e&#8221; The password should be as complicated as possible.</p>



<h2><strong>5. Educate the spam filters of your email provider</strong></h2>



<p>You may improve your email provider&#8217;s spam filtering as one practical step. By doing this, you can instruct your email service provider to mark certain emails as spam right away in the future.</p>



<p>For educating your email provider,<strong> simply demonstrate which emails you don&#8217;t want to receive by filtering them as spam. </strong>This way, your email provider will learn to independently identify such emails and automatically label them. And instead of being shown in your inbox, any suspicious emails will be sent directly to the spam bin.</p>



<p>You should remember though that your email provider&#8217;s spam filter isn&#8217;t flawless and won&#8217;t be able to catch 100% of spam. But with some time and patience, it will learn to properly identify messages from suspicious senders, or those containing dangerous links or even malware.</p>



<h2><strong>Wrapping up</strong></h2>



<p>In the never-ending battle against spam invading our inboxes, it&#8217;s time to get proactive about email security. Here are some practical strategies:<br></p>



<ol><li><strong>Choose reliable email providers: </strong>Go for the big guns like Gmail and Outlook – they&#8217;re known for their awesome spam filters.<br></li><li><strong>Configure your privacy settings. </strong>Modify your advertising, location tracking, two-factor authentication, and general privacy settings for an extra layer of security.<br></li><li><strong>Get a sidekick email: </strong>Create a separate email for your everyday stuff to keep spam out of your main inbox.<br></li><li><strong>Mind password security. </strong>Make your passwords beefy with a mix of upper and lower-case letters, numbers, and funky characters.<br></li><li><strong>Educate your spam filters:</strong> Label suspicious emails as spam to train your email provider to identify them independently.<br>.</li></ol>



<p>Remember, even with these tricks, there&#8217;s no foolproof defense. Stay sharp when dealing with unknown senders, and you&#8217;ll have a safer, spam-free inbox.</p>

<p>You should be careful with some actions you perform on your Windows. Indeed, they may pose a risk to your security or impair the performance of the operating system. <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Windows </a>11 offers a renewed user experience. It also has a modern design and improved integration with <a href="https://www.osradar.com/?s=windows+11" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Microsoft </a>365 applications. Additionally, new features such as support for Android apps and a revamped Microsoft Store have been added with the latest updates. However, to take full advantage of Microsoft&#8217;s operating system, there are some things you should never do on your PC. We share with you some of the bad practices that can affect your computer&#8217;s performance, security, and stability.</p>



<h2>Never disable Microsoft Defender</h2>



<p>Never disable Microsoft Defender, the antivirus integrated in Windows 11. Indeed, it protects you from all kinds of threats, such as viruses, malware, ransomware, and phishing.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="1024" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-39579" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont.jpg 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont-300x300.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont-768x768.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont-696x696.jpg 696w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>This application is constantly updated and runs in the background without affecting your computer&#8217;s performance. If you disable it, you will be leaving your computer vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Besides, they can steal your data, damage your files or crash your system.</p>



<h2>Do not download applications from unreliable sources</h2>



<p>Certainly, Windows 11 allows you to install Android apps from the Amazon store. However, that doesn&#8217;t mean you can download anything from the Internet. If you want to get a certain program on your PC, make sure it comes from an official source or a secure website.</p>



<p>Otherwise, you may install malicious software. This may contain viruses, spyware, or adware. Remember that it is possible for them to slow down your computer and even take full control. This will affect your personal information and files. As much as possible, try to download all your applications from the official Microsoft store. Keep in mind that this is the best thing you can do to keep your computer safe.</p>



<h2>Do not ignore Windows 11 updates</h2>



<p>Windows 11 updates are important because they include improvements in performance, security and stability. If you ignore them, you will be losing these advantages. Also, at the same time exposing your computer to possible vulnerabilities.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="838" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont2-1024x838.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39580" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont2-1024x838.png 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont2-300x245.png 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont2-768x628.png 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont2-696x569.png 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont2-1068x874.png 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont2.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>Windows 11</figcaption></figure>



<p>So the best thing to do is to accept each and every update. Or check for them manually from the system settings.</p>



<h2>Do not use weak passwords</h2>



<p>It should be noted that passwords are the first line of defense in protecting your personal information. If you choose weak or easy-to-guess combinations, you will be making hackers&#8217; job easier.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="696" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AdobeStock_232143466-1024x696.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-39581" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AdobeStock_232143466-1024x696.jpeg 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AdobeStock_232143466-300x204.jpeg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AdobeStock_232143466-768x522.jpeg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AdobeStock_232143466-1536x1044.jpeg 1536w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AdobeStock_232143466-2048x1392.jpeg 2048w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AdobeStock_232143466-696x473.jpeg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AdobeStock_232143466-1068x726.jpeg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AdobeStock_232143466-1920x1305.jpeg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>Avoid simple passwords such as <em>123456</em> or <em>abcdef</em>. Consider using password managers to keep your credentials secure. Also, include a set of letters and numbers to make it a strong lock for the digital world.</p>



<h2>Never connect to a public Wi-Fi network without a VPN</h2>



<p>When you connect to a public Wi-Fi network, like the one at an airport, for example, you are automatically exposing your Internet traffic to possible interceptions or cyberattacks. It means someone could see what you do online. Or that they can even access your sensitive information.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont3-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-39582" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont3-300x169.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont3-768x432.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont3-696x392.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont3-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont3.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>To avoid this, it&#8217;s best to use a VPN. Remember that it encrypts your connection and allows you to browse securely and anonymously. There are many options available, some free and others for a fee. However, most of them fulfill their function perfectly.</p>



<h2>Never use obsolete programs</h2>



<p>Obsolete software is software that does not receive updates from its developers. Or, simply, it is not compatible with the most recent versions of the operating system.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="956" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont4-1024x956.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-39583" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont4-1024x956.jpg 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont4-300x280.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont4-768x717.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont4-696x650.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont4-1068x997.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont4.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>This type of program can cause problems on your Windows 11 computer, such as slowdowns, crashes, or incompatibilities. In addition, it can also represent a security risk. Indeed, they may contain vulnerabilities that have not been corrected.</p>



<h2>Do not disable User Account Control</h2>



<p>User Account Control (UAC) is a very important Windows 11 security feature. It asks for confirmation when you want to perform an action that requires administrator permissions. For example, installing a program or changing system settings.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="256" height="256" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5.png" alt="" class="wp-image-39584" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5.png 256w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5-150x150.png 150w" sizes="(max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px" /></figure>



<p>If you disable UAC, you will be losing protection and giving free rein to any action that may affect your computer. This is why it is best to keep it enabled. Unless you are an advanced user and have knowledge of what you are doing.</p>



<h2>Do not install too many programs on your PC</h2>



<p>Certainly, Windows 11 offers you a great variety of applications to work, play and create content. However, that doesn&#8217;t mean you have to install them all. If you do, you will be taking up hard disk space. In addition to consuming system resources and generating registry entries.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="704" src="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5-1024x704.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-39585" srcset="https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5-1024x704.jpg 1024w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5-300x206.jpg 300w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5-768x528.jpg 768w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5-218x150.jpg 218w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5-696x479.jpg 696w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5-1068x734.jpg 1068w, https://www.osradar.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/dont5.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>In the end, this can significantly affect your computer&#8217;s performance, slow it down or cause errors. The best thing to do is to install the programs you really need. It is also necessary to delete the ones you no longer want or no longer use. Be sure that your computer will thank you for it.</p>



<p>By following the above recommendations, you will be able to get the most out of your Windows 11 PC and guarantee the security and privacy of your personal data. There is no doubt that Microsoft&#8217;s operating system is very complete and advanced. However, it also requires certain care and precautions to keep it in optimal conditions.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>The rise of drones has not only transformed the way we perceive the skies but has also paved the way for innovative entrepreneurship. The fusion of cutting-edge drone technology and entrepreneurial spirit has given birth to a dynamic niche – drone-related entrepreneurship.</p>



<p>Innovative solutions are emerging to address entrepreneurs&#8217; evolving challenges in the realm of Drone-Related Entrepreneurship and the Laws That Govern the Niche. These solutions, such as those offered by <a href="https://sentrycs.com/">Sentrycs Integrated Counter Drone Solutions</a> and integrated counter-drone technology, highlight the dynamic intersection between business endeavors and drone regulatory compliance.</p>



<p><strong>What draws entrepreneurs to Drone Technology?</strong></p>



<p>Entrepreneurs are drawn to drone tech because it transforms industries and opens doors in various areas. The easy entry into this field appeals to ambitious entrepreneurs who want innovation without significant investments.</p>



<p>Drones&#8217; flexibility lets entrepreneurs explore new areas. They can create unique e-commerce deliveries or offer data-based solutions in farming, building, and the environment. The prospect of automation, saving money, and boosting productivity motivate business-savvy people aiming to find their place in the growing drone world.</p>



<p><strong>Diverse Applications of Drones</strong></p>



<p>Drones have moved beyond being seen as toys and are now crucial tools with various uses. A significant use is capturing photos and videos from the air. Drones with high-quality cameras have made it possible for entrepreneurs in media and entertainment to create stunning content from angles that were hard to reach.</p>



<p>Drones have also been vital in scientific research, nature protection, and disaster control. They can quickly navigate harsh landscapes, gather vital data, and help with mapping. Moreover, agriculture has undergone a significant change with drones. Entrepreneurs in this field use drones to improve irrigation, check crop health, and apply fertilizers accurately.</p>



<p>In construction, drones streamline site checks and track progress. Entrepreneurs use them to make 3D models, watch construction schedules, and improve safety measures. This speeds up projects and lowers risks linked to manual checks.</p>



<p><strong>Ensuring Safe and Responsible Drone Operations through Compliance</strong></p>



<p>Comprehending and following drone regulations is vital, not hindering creativity but smoothly integrating drones into society. Entrepreneurs in drone ventures must understand the rules for responsible practices. These regulations ensure safe operations, prioritizing safety, privacy, and the environment. Adhering to them enhances industry credibility, builds trust with stakeholders, and showcases the ethical nature of drone businesses.</p>



<p><strong>Detailing the Types of Permits and Licenses</strong></p>



<p>The landscape of permits and licenses can be diverse and multifaceted for drone entrepreneurs. Among the various types of permits, a few stand out as fundamental:</p>



<p><strong>Pilot&#8217;s License or Remote Pilot Certificate</strong></p>



<p>This is often a prerequisite for anyone operating drones for commercial purposes. It demonstrates the operator&#8217;s knowledge of aeronautical rules and safety protocols.</p>



<p><strong>Operational Waivers</strong></p>



<p>These waivers allow operators to deviate from certain regulatory provisions under specific circumstances. They might pertain to <a href="https://www.faa.gov/uas/commercial_operators/operations_over_people">flying at night, over people</a>, or beyond the visual line of sight.</p>



<p><strong>Airspace Authorizations</strong></p>



<p>These approvals are essential when flying in controlled airspace, ensuring coordination with air traffic control and other aircraft. This includes plans, safety steps, and working with local authorities, air control, or police for complex areas.</p>



<p><strong>Introducing the Concept of Counter-Drone Technologies</strong></p>



<p>As drones become common symbols of progress, safety is also crucial. Counter-drone technology steps in as the hero, tackling issues from rogue drones. They protect airspace, solving challenging problems with innovation. Counter-drone technology is like watchful <a href="https://cybersguards.com/emergent-cybersecurity-risks-presented-by-drones/">guards against rogue drones</a>.
