Improving security on your Bush Phone

Online

In order to avoid online threats we recommend that you install antivirus and security software on your device and keep these and your browser and other software up to date to take advantage of security fixes.

Physical theft

If you store valuable information on your phone including passwords and logins for personal accounts etc. you may want to enhance the security of your phone in case it is stolen or lost.

Setting a PIN or password

You can set a pin code (4-8 digit numerical code) or you can set a password which is 4 to 17 digits. We recommend you set a password, the longer and more complex it is the harder it is to break. For the best passwords use a mixture of upper and lower case letters, numbers and special characters such as %, # and *.

- In 'Settings', select 'Security', then 'screen lock', then select PIN or Password.

Encrypting your memory

In order to prevent more technically capable persons gaining access to your data, in the event that your phone is lost or stolen, you can encrypt your phone's memory so that even if the password is breached the data will be unreadable.

Please note encryption will have a modest effect on performance but for most tasks this will not be noticeable. For memory intensive tasks such as playing back video files stored in the phone's memory it may cause some buffering.

In order to encrypt your phone you must first set a PIN or password as shown above.

Before you encrypt, you must charge your phone to at least 80% battery capacity, then with your phone still on charge go to:

- 'Settings', select 'Security', then 'Encrypt phone'. The phone will then ask you for your password. Type this, then press 'Encrypt phone'. The encryption can take up to 90 minutes. Do not interrupt the process. Failure to follow this routine exactly may result in your phone becoming unusable.

- Please note that your phone cannot be decrypted by the same process.

To decrypt you must return the phone to factory settings which will erase all of your files and downloaded apps (securely).

- To reset to factory defaults go to 'Settings', select 'Backup and Reset' then 'Factory data reset'.

Erasing your personal data

If you sell your phone on or discard it, you should erase the data in memory before you do so, using a file eraser program that actively writes to every record in the memory. This securely erases your data so that it cannot be recovered. Please note that simply returning your phone to factory settings is not a reliable way of erasing your personal data (unless you have first encrypted your data).

• To download a file eraser go to Google Play store, select a file eraser program such as Remo File Eraser – download and install.
• Open the app and follow instructions to securely erase your data.
