Mobile Devices and Operating Systems Continued
Introduction
Last week you got a brand-new computer provided to you by the research team. This week the team has found a security breach in their network and they need to make sure your computer is correctly setup. You will now also select your new mobile device. Before you start using the mobile device we will need to make sure it is correctly configured and ready for use.
Remember that all these tools are essential for your research so make sure that you understand how to configure them. Otherwise you run the risk of misrepresenting data, getting viruses, or being part of a security breach.
Let’s finalize our computer setup and learn how to configure our new mobile device!
