Attackers keep up with the times, constantly improving their methods of data theft.
There are several signs that will tell you that your phone has been hacked.
Battery
Smartphone batteries don't last forever, but they are designed to last a long time.
If your phone's battery starts to drain quickly, this may be a sign of hacking.
According to the Telegram channel “23 MVD”, the main sign of a hack may be the presence of a large amount of advertising where it has not been observed before.
It is also worth paying attention to the fact that the device gets very hot when performing simple tasks.
This means that viruses are heating up processes or other components of the phone a lot.
Signs that your phone has been hacked may also include unexpected applications and requests for two-factor authentication codes.
How to protect yourself from hacking
Developers are constantly fixing bugs in programs, so it is useful to regularly update applications on your phone.
Always use complex passwords, PIN codes, secret codes on your devices, avoiding their repetition.
Also clear your internet browsing history. Delete everything, including cache and cookies.
