WEEKLY FINANCIAL TIPS
MOBILE SECURITY – Smartphones aren’t just smart, they are small personal computers. These
devices are small and mobile, which opens a new set of threats to your identity. If you listen to the
news, read the paper or even view the headlines online, you can’t get away from the recent increase
in identity theft. There were over 8.1 million victims of identity theft in the U.S. in 2010. With
people stealing credit and debit card numbers, it’s no wonder we need to take steps to protect our
identity. It can take up to 5,840 hours (the equivalent of working a full-time job for two years)
to correct the damage from identity theft. The average victim spends 330 hours repairing the
damage. Here are a few steps to help you to prevent identity theft on your Smartphone:
21. 1. Protect your Smartphone. Every Smartphone can be password protected or locked through a pattern or code.
This prevents others from accessing your phone’s information or downloading apps to track you.
2. Install security software. Mobile malware is a rising threat to privacy and security. Mobile malware may
present itself through fake mobile applications, web-browsing, and SMS/text messages. There are numerous
companies which offer anti-virus, malware and security software designed especially for Smartphones. Make
sure to download security software updates. Here is a link to the top five best free android security apps:
http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/features/software/3299983/the-five-best-free-android-apps-for-smartphone-
security/
3. Be careful when you install apps on your phone. Apps can do almost anything these days. However, it is
important to install apps from a trusted source. Before downloading any app, consider reviewing the
information the phone app is asking permission to access. The information varies depending on the app’s
requirements. Take the time to read the small print.
4. Install all updates for your phone. Just as you do for your computer, install all updates for your phone and the
apps on your phone.
5. Understand your location (GPS) abilities. Many applications request permission to access location. Consider
turning off the GPS on your phone to protect your location privacy, unless it is necessary to perform a desired
function. If you GPS is enabled, your personal information may be exposed through a process called
“geotagging.” Keep in mind that you have the ability to enable and disable the location service on your phone.
To learn how to turn this feature off visit www.icanstalku.com.
6. Be aware of what you are doing on your phone. The same precautions you would take while on your home
computer apply to your Smartphone. Double check URLs for accuracy, don’t open suspicious links, and make
sure a site is secure before giving any billing or personal information.
7. Limit your activities while using public Wi-Fi. Try not to purchase things or access email while using a
public Wi-Fi zone. Public Wi-Fi hotspots are targeted by hackers since they can give the hacker direct access to
your mobile device. Using your 3G or 4G network provider connection is much more secure than using a
public Wi-Fi connection.
8. Do not “jail-break” or use a “jail-broken” phone. A “jail-broken” phone is a phone that has gone through a
process which opens it operating system to applications which would otherwise not be compatible with the
operating system. Once a phone is “jail-broken” it is vulnerable to anything the user downloads.
9. Make sure your phone has a feature that helps you locate it if it is lost or stolen.
10. Enroll in a backup/wiping program. You can enroll in a program that will back up the information on your
Smartphone to your home computer. Many of these services are also able to “wipe” your phone if it’s lost or
stolen so that no data remains on the device itself.

CLOSURES AND CONSTRUCTION
66. JENSEN FAMILY HEALTH CENTER REOPENING IS DELAYED UNTIL SEPTEMBER. The renovation project was
scheduled to finish early this year. Once a problem with the flooring is solved, there will be a better idea of an
opening date. The $2 million renovation will include new exercise machines, new flooring, a new indoor running
track and a new child care facility.
67. EXTENDED TRAFFIC INTERUPTION: Intersection of Rainier Drive and A Street on Logistic Center/JBLM near the
Logistic Center Gate will be under construction from 30 July 2012 thru 1 October 2012. Inbound and outbound
traffic WILL be severely impacted. ALL inbound vehicles will be diverted onto Belmont Avenue for access to
Logistic Center facilities and JBLM. Outbound traffic thru the Logistics gate WILL be restricted to passenger type
vehicles and box trucks. Detour routes and road closures will be clearly marked. For information contact 253-
584-5937.
68. As part of the larger effort to improve livability and functionality at Joint base Lewis McChord (JBLM), the
PENDLETON AVENUE PROJECT will result in better traffic flow, improved parking and facility access. It will also
create an attractive bike and pedestrian-friendly environment with a tree-lined boulevard as well as off-street
parking in some areas. Construction has begun and is scheduled to be completed September 2013. This date
may change with requested change orders or unforeseen conditions and will be updated accordingly. Website

71. PHOTOCOPYING OF MILITARY ID PROHIBITED Although commercial establishments are not prohibited from
asking for military/government identification, many government personnel and commercial establishments are
unaware of the prohibition on duplication of government identification. Unfortunately, there are no safeguards
in place to ensure a government identification card won’t be counterfeited or “cloned” based on a photocopy by
a commercial establishment. Criminal elements and terrorist organizations place U.S. Government identification
as a high value logistical element when planning acts against the U.S. military. It is recommended that
military/DoD personnel provide a state drivers license or other form of photo identification to be photocopied if
an establishment insists on a photocopy of the traveler’s identification. *NOTE: This does not apply to medical
establishments (i.e. doctor’s office, hospitals, etc…) who are allowed take a copy for the purpose of filing
insurance claims; and other government agencies in the performance of official government business.
