Stay Safe with ESET Mobility Security and Win an Android Tablet

In today’s world, smartphones keep many of us organized and connected. We do everything from banking to emails to scheduling. Our smartphones also serve as our on-demand photo albums, and as an educational and entertainment tool for our children. Due to personal information being stored in our smartphones, they become a target for hackers. For me knowing what threats exist, learning to have safe online habits, and using proactive protection is the best way to stay safe online.
