I’m going to be very blunt. You really need to either get rid of all of these devices, or you need to come to terms with complexity and uncertainty and unfamiliarity.


Security is never certain. Never absolute. Nothing can be.


There are ways to mitigate some security risk, such as unique and robust passwords, awareness of security practices, maintaining appropriate backups, and keeping updated to current.


But there are no absolutes here. Even the simplest of simple cellphones can still be vulnerable.


With iPhone and security? Using Safety Check, and some other included information, might help:
