As online activity increases the risk of personal data theft, experts urge users to strengthen cybersecurity awareness and adopt safer digital habits to protect privacy and finances.
Users are advised to regularly review permissions in WeChat, removing access for unfamiliar or unused third-party services to reduce unnecessary data sharing and exposure.
Users should also check "Login Device Management" under account security settings and delete unknown or outdated devices to prevent unauthorized access.
不要随意打开需要输入个人信息的网上测试、来历不明的二维码、短信中的不明链接等,它们很可能被植入了木马病毒。
Individuals are further urged to avoid unsecured public Wi-Fi, shared charging stations, and suspicious links or QR codes that may contain malware.
发布动态时,也请注意保护自己与家人的信息安全。
选择官方渠道下载,尤其是银行类App。注册时设置密码别偷懒,不要用生日、姓名缩写等。
在授权App相关权限时,一定要仔细查看通知的内容,对于使用该软件没有必要的权限要进行关闭。同时,对于长期不用的第三方平台或者网站,也要取消账号授权。
Individuals should limit the information shared on social platforms, disable unnecessary app features, download applications only from official channels, and use strong, unique passwords while granting only essential permissions.
If a data breach is suspected, users should terminate suspicious sessions, freeze affected accounts if necessary, and promptly update passwords across related accounts.
Users are also advised to preserve evidence and report incidents to relevant platforms or authorities such as the 12321 Online Harmful and Spam Information Reporting Reception Center and the China Internet Illegal Information Reporting Center, and contact police if financial losses occur.
