Mobile device security

  • Keep your app and mobile OS updated with the latest bug fixes

  • Use fingerprint scanning or facial recognition to log in

Passwords

  • Create strong passwords with letters, numbers and symbols - and never use the same one across multiple accounts

Due care

  • Never post sensitive personal information online via social media platforms

WiFi security

  • Be careful with public or shared WIFI connections - always choose secure WPA2 connections over WEP connections and use a VPN where possible

Email security

  • Choose email providers with security and spam filters and two-factor authentication like Gmail and Yahoo!

Phishing and fraud

  • Watch out for offers that are too good to be true - they probably are

  • What is phishing and how you can protect yourself from it??

    A phishing scam attempts to trick you into divulging your account information, such as your password, pin, card number, and so on. Almost always, fraudsters will approach you with an unsolicited message claiming that there is an issue with your account. This is something VIALET never does.

Secure E-shopping

  • Shop only at trusted websites of well-known retailers

Secure Web surfing

  • Check that websites are secure - look for the lock by the URL and examine the credentials with a simple click

Enable security app settings

  • Enable location tracking on your app, so we can spot irregular transactions that may not have been made by you
