"Don't Ignore This Simple Tip: NSA Says Rebooting Can Protect Your Phone"

The National Security Agency (NSA) has issued an advisory to alert users to reboot their iPhones and Androids. Turning devices off and back on again can help with mobile security and to reduce the instances of cyber threats such as spear phishing and zer0-click exploits. While rebooting doesn’t solve all cyber threats, it is one precaution to take. This and other related advice was first issued in the NSA Telework and Mobile Security Guide which offers other actions to take such as using strong PINs and passwords, keeping software updated, and using 2 step authentication.
