Alert: Be aware about Sensors in Smart Phones

We know about some sensors and we only think that sensors useful to get easier in functioning of smart phone operations.  But, there are many dangerous disadvantages are consists with sensors, as the sensors have facilities to hack the mobile, to know the secret pin numbers, etc, which kept in the smart phone, which operating by the user in their mobiles.

The hacker may easily find out the passwords, pin numbers, phone lock code, etc by the information of sensors.  The smart phones have many sensors and you should aware about it.  The sensors in the smart phone like accelerometer, gyroscope, proximity, ambient lite sensors, etc are now consisting in the advanced smart phones, which are now in the market.  These sensors can change the smartphone as smarter in functioning, but they has very dangerous disadvantages also, so the user must be aware about its functioning n their phones.

A Technological University Researchers found in their research that, the hackers can unlock any phone, which consists sensors.  The Indian Scientist played key role in the group of Scientists in research.  As a part of this research, the Scientists unlocked unknown phone by using the information of six sensors based on machine learning algorithm.  They said that, the phone unlocked in only three attempts with 99.5% of accuracy.

The accuracy rate was 74% earlier to unlock the phone based on machine learning algorithm.  But, now this percent is increased up to 99.5% due to functioning of the sensors.  The sensors will record as information of which movements take place in the phone when the user entering the passwords in his phone, the scientists unlocked the phone with this information itself.

So, be careful guys while using smart phones and entering the important passwords.
