How easy would it be for someone to access the data on your phone? Do you use a lock screen or passcode? Think about all of the sensitive data that would be compromised if your device was ever lost or stolen. Securing your phone with a passcode might be an inconvenience, and you may wonder just how secure that passcode even is. Many people choose easy to guess codes, such as a birthdate or address, if they even have one at all. A recent article in USA Today looks at the various alternatives to passcodes including fingerprints and puzzle-style codes called Pattern or Knock Code.
