How do hackers work? If the Wi-Fi network you are using is open, hackers can easily intercept the data you exchange. There is a software called 'packet sniffer' for this. It can know all the information entered into the middle of the interaction with your phone! If you want to avoid such hacking there is only one solution - do not use Open / Free WiFi. Use mobile data if needed.

Password steal

Many of us use the same password all over Facebook, Gmail and Yahoo. As a result, if a password is stolen, the hackers are knowing the password of all! Therefore, different passwords should be used everywhere.

Another important thing that many of us do not know is that the passwords should always use numbers (1 2 3 4) as well as letters (A B C D) and so on. If you use only letters, it is relatively easy to steal passwords, using the digit becomes difficult for hackers! Do not forget to change your password after use it for long time.

Protect your Facebook password with mail, phone number etc. Get mail account under mobile verification.

Think of someone close to you send you a message with a link in Facebook and said that you can see any of your favorite songs / photos / videos etc. You click on this link and your account is hacked immediately! Then you wanted to know it from your friend, then learn that his account is already hacked!

Most of the phishing is showing that your account is logged out (but usually it's not) and showing you a log in screen. But look before you log in there. Show the link, it's usually other link but the page is as like as your desire log in screen. When you log in there with your account details, it will send your data to hacker by it's system and redirect you to your home screen. In this way most of the phishing work. But there may be more of phishing available but generally for antivirus or latest browser (Mozilla, Chrome) usually automatically block it before it can do anything on your computer or smartphone. But be careful.

Trojan Horse

Currently the most popular method for hackers is the RAT (Remote Administration Tool). Hackers can send this software / app to you in different ways. Once you install it, the hackers will get control of your smartphone!

Talking about hackers, they will not force you to install the app. So how do they plan to convince you? What they basically do - they combines the harmful app with another common known app. It is often seen that many software when open its automatically keep downloading app, in most cases UC Browser/Vidmate are all known apps. When you install the app on a phone, it also installed RAT and you don't know that harmful RAT hiding inside it! The common app together with this RAT is called Trojan horse.

"Trojan horse" means "Horse of Troy". There is a story of Greek mythology, once Greece's soldiers plan a tricky one to occupy the city of Troy. They make a huge big horse and leave it on the borders of the town of Troy. The inhabitants of the city are surprised to see the trunk of the Greek soldiers!

Meanwhile the soldiers left the wooden horse and leave from there. Troy soldier think that Greek soldier gone and bring the horse into the city. By this work they make a biggest mistake.

When all the people of the city fell asleep in the night, from the huge wooden horse the Greek army was brought down by rope! The entire city of Troy came under attack. In this way the Troy become destroyed and the tragedy occurred.

Like the Troy horse in the story, Trojan Horse works the same way.
