Side-channel attacks extract data indirectly. Mitigate them with secure hardware and software measures.

Secure bootloaders ensure only trusted operating systems are loaded, preventing unauthorized changes during startup.

Kernel security is crucial as the OS kernel manages resources. Use regular updates to fix vulnerabilities in the kernel.

Multi-user support can lead to data leaks. Use separate accounts with limited access to sensitive apps and data.

Debugging tools can expose sensitive data. Restrict access to debugging features and disable them in production environments.

Denial-of-service attacks overload devices. Prevent this by using firewalls and avoiding exposure to unsecured networks.

Phishing via SMS tricks users into sharing sensitive data. Avoid clicking links in suspicious messages and use anti-phishing tools.

Secure element technology provides hardware-based security for sensitive data like payment information and encryption keys.

Secure wireless protocols like WPA3 protect Wi-Fi connections, preventing unauthorized access and data interception.

NFC transactions are safer with encryption and secure apps, ensuring data is not intercepted during transfers.
