Comprehensive protection program for mobile device albums
Layered protection is recommended for the special risks of smartphone albums:
- System level protection::
- Enable 'Limit Location Tracking' on iOS (Settings → Privacy → Location Services → Camera → Off)
- Android uses Shelter to create work profiles to isolate sensitive photos
- Enable the 'Lock Folder' feature in Google Photos
- application management::
- Use encrypted albums such as Ente instead of the default application
- Setting a separate app lock for the Albums app (e.g. AppLock)
- Disable direct album access for social apps
- content monitoring::
- Sample 10% photos monthly with They See Your Photos!
- Setting up automated tools to scan metadata for added photos
- Build automated cleanup processes using open source tools like MAT2
- Emergency program::
- Configuring Remote Erase (Find My Device/iPhone)
- Establishment of encrypted backup to local NAS
- Prepare SIM card PIN code to prevent secondary leakage due to loss of cell phone
Advanced users can brush in a privacy protection system such as GrapheneOS to build a private cloud album with Nextcloud. Ordinary users should at least enable double authentication and regular security checks.
