[ACBS] Update your phone’s security to protect your securities account
Apple and Google have recently released security updates to fix vulnerabilities in iOS and Android. If a device is not updated, attackers may exploit it to break in, steal personal information, and put investors’ securities accounts and transactions at risk.

1. For iPhone or iPad

3. Tips to protect your securities account
In addition to updating your device’s security, please note the following:
- Do not share your username, password, OTP, or any other security information with anyone.
- Do not click on unfamiliar links or install apps from unknown sources.
- Decline any request to install an app, share your screen, or remotely control your device from strangers.
