One of the main objectives that we set ourselves at the OSI is to raise awareness among users so that they make safe and responsible use of the Internet and the devices they use on a daily basis. To do this, it is essential for us to train them on good practices and inform them of those that they should avoid if they do not want to fall into the hands of cybercriminals. Therefore, we believe that it is essential that in addition to having theoretical knowledge, it is necessary to know how to put it into new zealand phone number data practice and, to do so, it is essential to know how to use the appropriate tools.

All the tools we make available to you have been analyzed by our team, which guarantees their correct operation without neglecting the privacy and security of users.

Within this section we can find tools that are divided into three different groups that we detail below:

Remote Access
These types of tools allow access to a device that we do not have physical access to, and use it as if we had it in front of us. These types of tools will only work when both devices are connected to the Internet. Thanks to these types of tools, we can access our home computer from our Smartphone, for example, and download a document to our mobile.

Another advantage of this type of applications is that many of them are multiplatform, this means that from my computer, with macOS operating system, I can access another computer with Windows operating system, or a phone with Android or iOS operating system.

Anti-theft
These tools are used to act quickly and effectively in the event of loss or theft of a device. The functionalities offered by these tools are very varied, from geolocating the device, taking screenshots, and even deleting all the information it contains remotely, guaranteeing the protection of our privacy.

There are anti-theft tools for the most widely used operating systems, so there is no excuse not to protect them. And remember, in the event of theft, we will not try to recover the device ourselves; we will first contact the State Security Forces and Corps.
