Changing phone is like changing clothes for some people nowadays. Most of the people usually sell their old phone and get a new one for themselves. But before selling off your old handset, did you make sure that all of your personal data is safe and is been deleted completely from your phone?

You completely sure that your half naked selfies you took once has been removed completely from your device before selling it to someone? and is in unrecoverable state?

Today we will be sharing with you one of the major Security flaw of your android device. People think that Android factory reset option completely removes all of the data from your android phone and reset the phone to its original state. let me tell you that this misconception of people about android factory reset option is completely wrong and it is proved by the renowned security software company named AVAST.

Avast known for its antivirus and security software for mobile and computers proved that its actually quite easy to recover most of the data and personal details even after factory resetting your android device. Avast buyed some 20 used android smartphone from eBay and tried to recover the images and data from this 20 android phones which were for sale. What they found was shocking, they recovered about 40k photos from this devices among which there were more than 200 nude selfies and emails and text messages.

According to users of this phones " They did a clean wipe and  factory reset of the phone before selling them" But " Factory reset option only clean ups the phone at an application layer" thus it was quite easy for them to recover the data. Actually even more shocking was that they recover all this data with a normal recovery software available to all and even a normal person could recover it.
Now you think that " Smartphone is one of the most used device for storing personal data and images and even data about internet banking and all your online transaction made from your phone"

Avast also pointed out that their own security app is way better to clean up your phone that than the factory reset option.

Its a way big challenge in front of us to make people aware about the device security containing their world in there pocket.
