It's never the handset. It's the photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBackups are the most boring subject in personal security and the one people regret skipping most. They sit in the same mental category as insurance, right up to the afternoon they become the only thing that matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe other half of this course is encryption, the word that has come up more than any other across the whole series without ever being properly explained. It isn't rocket science. It's a locked box that only the right key opens. Once you can see how that works for data sitting on your laptop and data crossing the internet, the cloud stops being a vague worry and becomes something you can make sensible decisions about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEncryption, properly explained.\u003c\/strong\u003e The two situations it covers: data at rest, meaning your locked phone or laptop, and data in transit, meaning the padlock and HTTPS.
