Why do the troops strictly control the mobile phone? Lightly leaking military secrets, but affecting national security

in #technology5 years ago

Nowadays, mobile phones are everywhere. Whether it is basic functions such as ordinary calls or messaging, or new intelligent functions such as payment, navigation, entertainment, and photography, the use of smart phones brings convenience to people, but when we use mobile phones. When it comes to convenient services, it inadvertently exposes our various information. Because we have already regarded mobile phones as an indispensable part of our lives, more and more time is spent on mobile phones every day, and many personal privacy is leaked out. In recent years, mobile phone security issues have increasingly caused public concern.
Therefore, in the military, there are strict standards for the use of smart phones. If abused, it is likely to reveal military secrets and even affect the security of the country. Any information in the military may be related to the safety of the country, which is why some countries send spies to other countries to steal information in this regard. Many seemingly insignificant details will bring irreparable problems to the country. Loss. The spies will use every opportunity to steal military equipment from other countries, military deployments, etc. In the past, stealing news also required spies to try to get close to the confidential personnel, but with the smartphone, they can monitor The way the phone is used to get information. Many countries have allowed soldiers to use personal mobile phones, and they have also imposed special restrictions on soldiers' mobile phones. However, some soldiers have leaked secrets because of mobile phones. Among them, a Russian soldier made a self-portrait and then triggered a series of subsequent problems.
Once Russia occupied the Crimea, the contradiction between Ukraine and Russia became very fierce. Many countries that had a close economic relationship with Russia also imposed various sanctions on Russia and conducted energy on Russia through energy, minerals and other aspects. Suppressed. The Russian economy has been severely hit. In the past few years, it has lost nearly 900 billion US dollars, and their struggle with Uzbekistan has gradually become apparent. At that time, several parts of the eastern part of Ukraine wanted independence, and the government forces immediately fought with the local armed militia. Who knows that the final patchwork of the militants actually won. Therefore, many Western countries have questioned whether these armed men have received assistance from Russia. They even suspect that Russian soldiers are directly involved in this battle. In the face of various doubts from Western countries, the Russian side has always denied it. Uzbekistan has never found relevant evidence.

Just as the two sides were deadlocked, a self-portrait issued by a Russian soldier on social software caught the attention. The photo itself is fine, just a group of Russian soldiers, but this self-portrait is located in Uzbekistan, and the background of the photo is also in the territory of Uzbekistan. It is hard to explain that the Russian soldiers appeared in the territory of Uzbekistan. This is also directly evidenced by the Western countries as Russia intervening in the Ukrainian civil war. Russia is hard to argue, so the Western countries immediately adopted stricter rules against Russia. Economic sanctions. The soldier was severely punished afterwards, and Russia strictly controlled the use of smartphones by soldiers, especially when fighting, the mobile phone is no longer allowed to be brought to the battlefield. At the same time, Russia’s mobile phone leak incident also gave other countries a warning and strengthened the control of mobile phones in their own military.
In 2017, the Russian government issued a regulation prohibiting military personnel from posting photos or videos on social software. In March of the following year, Russia announced that it would ban military personnel from using smartphones with cameras and navigation, and related controls on the brand models of mobile phones. These are all for the sake of national security. Russia has too many things like self-portraits, and they have suffered a lot.
