When traveling and wanting to keep your phone/device safe from viruses and hackers, check out USB data blockers. Some refer to this portable device also as a USB condom. Why have one?

You may be plugging your phone or device into a port at an airport or hotel to simply charge your phone or device. You certainly don’t want anyone eavesdropping in on your sensitive info. The data blocker allows your phone/device to charge while blocking data transfer … that’s the important goal of this blocker! 

Protect yourself with a data blocker. Plug the data blocker into the unknown power source at the hotel or airport, as examples. Then plug your usb phone/device plug into it. At the other end of the cord, plug in your phone/device! Easy!

Two other important things to remember: one, keep your phone/device software up to date! Two, when traveling, keep your phone charged! 

Happy safe travels!
