Many parents usually have to take care of work and children who have just gone to school, in order to better communicate with their children and learn about their children's movements, parents will wear children's watches for their children. Children's watches can provide parents with the real-time location of their children and provide a lot of help to parents. But are children's watches on the market really absolutely safe? #315 Information Security Lab # did an experiment, the results are shocking, many children's watches are easy to leak the whereabouts of children, if the lawbreakers use these children's watches to do bad things, then the consequences will be unimaginable.
Children's information leakage, carefully choose children's watches
Every year, CCTV 3.15 will expose the inferior products made by bad merchants in order to make profits, harming the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. In recent years, information security has been more and more attention by users, at the 3.15 evening party this year, CCTV exposed the privacy security issues of children's watches, 315 information security laboratory did an experiment, purchased a popular children's watch with sales of more than 100,000 on the Internet, engineers will invade a malicious program into the children's watch, and then through other devices can be real-time positioning of this children's watch, but also record the call content of the children's watch, and even call the camera function of the children's watch. This experiment has also attracted the attention of many parents, who are worried about the safety of children's watches in their children's hands.
Security risks posed by outdated systems
Operators of the experiment said that many children's watches on the market are equipped with old Android systems, and there is no protection for application permissions and user privacy, so children's watches can easily become walking "voyeurs". For example, the explosive children's watch purchased in the experiment is equipped with a low version of the Android operating system, and today's Android system has been updated to Android 12. Manufacturers in order to reduce costs, choose a low version of the operating system, which also allows others to easily get the children's watch application permissions, get the child's positioning, call recording, camera and other content information, if there are criminals to use the children's watch to spy on the child, then it will cause great security risks to the child.
Choose carefully and look for these certifications
If you find that your child's children's watch system is backward and is a miscellaneous watch without any safety certification, how to choose if you want to change a children's watch? We can consider the little genius brand, the little genius phone watch is quite famous in the industry, the brand's telephone watches have passed the international information security system ISO27001 certificate, the Eu ePrivacy information security certification and the German TÜV Nande MARK certification. At the same time, the Little Genius Watch Parent APP has also obtained the mobile APP security certification of the China Network Security Review Technology and Certification Center, which meets the national standard 35273 personal information security specifications, and the information security is guaranteed. All the apps in the children's watch can only be downloaded and installed through the Little Genius Store, and the permissions will be strictly controlled to make the app more secure.
