It is important to log out of accounts when using shared devices and keep personal devices secure with antivirus software and firewall settings to further protect their data.

Limitations of Data Security

Despite our comprehensive security measures, it is essential to understand that no system can offer complete security. Mindovix cannot guarantee absolute protection against all types of unauthorized access or breaches.
