Thankfully, there are a few easy ways to ensure your iPhone remains safe and sound from these kinds of attacks.

An iPhone virus — or any kind of iPhone malware — is a rare thing.

Other types of malware are designed to evade detection. With AVG Mobile Security, you won’t have to worry about catching malware in the first place, because we scan web pages and routers that might put your device at risk.

Here are some simple steps you can take to protect your data and keep your iPhone safe:

With iPhones and iPads, a healthy dose of caution goes a long way.

Macs need protection just like any other device, so make sure you’re using robust antivirus protection designed specifically for Mac. Beyond that, using a VPN, never clicking carelessly, and other common best practices will help keep all your devices safe.
