Recently MIUI 12 release, in the field release, published a set of terrible data, Android phones found on certain App a day to sweep the background of your phone 14,000 times, surprising privacy theft, it is possible that the phone's address book, cell phone photos, chat information are seen by the other side!

With the ever-changing development of network information technology, the mobile Internet ecosystem is becoming increasingly large, mobile apps App in order to provide people with convenient services at the same time, arbitrary pop-up ads, bundled downloads, malicious chargebacks, privacy theft, excessive claiming of rights and other types of behavior so that people can not guard against, various forms of hacking, malicious programs, security holes caused by security incidents is endless.

In the first quarter of 2020, the National Mobile App Security Situation Research Report mentioned that by the end of March, the Big Data Center had included 3.15 million+ Android Apps and 3 million+ iOS Apps. Most of the apps have high-risk vulnerabilities, 5.46% of apps have malicious programs, and more than 37% of apps have different degrees of violations such as over-authorization and over-scope collection.

Mobile apps cover a large amount of users' private data, and once leaked, it may have a significant impact on individuals and society, as well as a devastating impact on the long-term development of the mobile app industry. Mobile applications should effectively safeguard users' account passwords and personal data to protect their privacy. How to protect the data security and data privacy of mobile applications has become an urgent problem for domestic and foreign mobile application security technology.

Due to the different working mechanisms of Android and Apple systems, the Android App is more likely to obtain more information, and the software inside the Apple system only manages its own acreage, while the rest of the space within the scope of the APP must be permitted by the system to proceed. And Android system is not the same, due to the inherent openness, the software on it seems to be able to come and go more freely.

A new privacy feature in MIUI 12: flares. It offers security operations such as background wakeup, authorization management, and photo sensitive information wiping.

What's even more impressive is that there is a virtual permission, you app even if you do not agree that the permission can not be used, I will give you a virtual permission to open the APP door. It reads all the false information, also protects the user's privacy

In short, we must pay attention to the reminder when opening the permissions when using the phone, there is no need for the APP to go to the P settings inside the permissions pipe, prohibit the complete reading, only during the use of the APP you can bet on the data, location, and other information. Information leakage is very forgiving, to avoid our losses is also important!
