How to keep your personal photos safe

You may not be the famous Jennifer Lawrence, but that doesn't mean you don't want to capture your personal or... very personal moments.

Your right! And those who tell you that since you're photographed naked, you have to accept the publication of your -stolen- photos are simply complex!

What can you do to continue your photography career without fear and anxiety? Follow the instructions below!

Password

It sounds so obvious, but for many it isn't. Sure, if you're famous, a hacker can crack your password. But if you don't have one at all, you're making their job a lot easier.

Protect your mobile device with a screen password that is not simple, is not four numbers in a row, and does not come from your name, your friend's name, your dog's name, your birthday, etc.

Photo sync

Turn off syncing to the cloud, your computer, Dropbox, Photostream, or other portable devices you may have. Your photos should only exist on the device you took them on, otherwise you'll miss the ball.

Photo sharing

Do not send these photos to friends, romantic partners, etc. Once a photo is deleted from your phone, you have "lost" it forever!

Turn off WiFi and Bluetooth on your phone

When you are in a public place and especially if you connect to free WiFi in stores, your mobile phone becomes an easy target for the hacker who is stalking you. Do not connect to such networks and prefer to use your 3G connection. Bluetooth is also an easy target for hackers but also for… ordinary customers who, for fun while drinking coffee, look for victims.

Never leave your cell phone unattended

When you're out or even at a friend's house with some new, unknown guests, don't leave your phone alone. A visitor who has seen you enter your password on the screen can, in a matter of minutes, access your phone and send all the relevant photos to their email.
