Ten Steps to Smartphone Security
Ten Steps to Smartphone Security Smartphones continue to grow in popularity and are now as powerful and functional as many computers. It is important to protect your smartphone just like you protect your computer as mobile cybersecurity threats are growing. These mobile security tips can help you reduce the risk of exposure to mobile security threats: 1. Set PINs and passwords. To prevent unauthorized access to your phone, set a password or Personal Identification Number (PIN) on your phone’s home screen as a first line of defense in case your phone is lost or stolen. When possible, use a different password for each of your important log-ins (email, banking, personal sites, etc.). You should configure your phone to automatically lock after five minutes or less when your phone is idle, as well as use the SIM password capability available on most smartphones. 2. Do not modify your smartphone’s security settings. Do not alter security settings for convenience. Tampering with your phone’s factory settings, jailbreaking, or rooting your phone undermines the built-in security features offered by your wireless service and smartphone, while making it more susceptible to an attack. 3. Backup and secure your data. You should backup all of the data stored on your phone – such as your contacts, documents, and photos. These files can be stored on your computer, on a removal storage card, or in the cloud. This will allow you to conveniently restore the information to your phone should it be lost, stolen, or otherwise erased. 4. Only install apps from trusted sources. -

A Survey Onmobile Operating System and Mobile Networks
A SURVEY ONMOBILE OPERATING SYSTEM AND MOBILE NETWORKS Vignesh Kumar K1, Nagarajan R2 (1Departmen of Computer Science, PhD Research Scholar, Sri Ramakrishna College of Arts And Science, India) (2Department of Computer Science, Assistant Professor, Sri Ramakrishna College Of Arts And Science, India) ABSTRACT The use of smartphones is growing at an unprecedented rate and is projected to soon passlaptops as consumers’ mobile platform of choice. The proliferation of these devices hascreated new opportunities for mobile researchers; however, when faced with hundreds ofdevices across nearly a dozen development platforms, selecting the ideal platform is often met with unanswered questions. This paper considers desirable characteristics of mobileplatforms necessary for mobile networks research. Key words:smart phones,platforms, mobile networks,mobileplatforms. I.INTRODUCTION In a mobile network, position of MNs has been changing due todynamic nature. The dynamic movements of MNs are tracked regularlyby MM. To meet the QoS in mobile networks, the various issuesconsidered such as MM, handoff methods, call dropping, call blockingmethods, network throughput, routing overhead and PDR are discussed. In this paper I analyse the five most popular smartphone platforms: Android (Linux), BlackBerry, IPhone, Symbian, and Windows Mobile. Each has its own set of strengths and weaknesses; some platforms trade off security for openness, code portability for stability, and limit APIs for robustness. This analysis focuses on the APIs that platforms expose to applications; however in practice, smartphones are manufactured with different physical functionality. Therefore certain platform APIs may not be available on all smartphones. II.MOBILITY MANAGEMENT IP mobility management protocols proposed by Alnasouri et al (2007), Dell'Uomo and Scarrone (2002) and He and Cheng (2011) are compared in terms of handoff latency and packet loss during HM. -

Question # 3 Do you know about Sailfish OS software availability? Answer:- Sailfish will be able to run most applications that were originally developed for MeeGo and Android, in addition to native Sailfish applications. This will give it a large catalogue of available apps on launch. Considering upon Jolla's declarations that Sailfish OS is be able to use software from following platforms Sailfish (natively created + ported like from Qt, Symbian, MeeGo - developers have reported that porting a Qt written software with Sailfish SDK takes a few hours only) Android applications are directly running in Sailfish OS. They are compatible as they are in third-party Android stores, with no needed modification (in most cases). MeeGo (because of backward compatibility thanks to MeeGo code legacy included in the Mer core) Unix and Linux (as Sailfish is Linux then using such a software is possible, especially RPM packages, either in terminal/console mode or with limitations implying from using Sailfish UI, if not ported and adjusted) HTML5 Read More Answers. -

Almost all the consumer electronics like smart television, stereo systems, telephones, mobiles now run on the smart operating systems that profiles internet access, multitasking, streaming media live, audio video playbacks and a broad range of applications. A smart television entitles an operating systems or platform that enables the user to access and view network based and online multimedia content eliminating the need to connect to an extra box hardware. There is a strict need for comparison for being acquainted with variations present in content access, possible privacy concerns and for developer concerns, the software development kit (SDK), the integrated development environment (IDE) framework and the supported codecs. Above all there is a need for balancing the physical attractiveness of a smart television platform, with other important factors like native applications, web support and playback. This paper recognizes several such smart television platforms for television and presents a subjective comparison among them by means of contrasted parameters of application framework, developer SDK, web support, multitasking, playback, schedulers and others. The results are noted and evaluated.[1] Keywords: operating systems, memory, multitasking, kernels, tizen, webOS, android, framework, software development kit, system manager, legacy television, native playback, device driver web support I. -
