How safe is internet banking on an ipad?

Have recently been a target of internet banking fraud. Would like to know how secure ipad is? I am trying to figure out how they hacked my account!

Did you ask the bank if other people have been hacked ? The problem might be on their end.

    My iPad is connected to the Internet. In the Music app I how to select Internet radio stations?
    (iPad and iTunes are up-to-date versions.)

    Having searched older posts it appers I am not the only one looking for Internet radio on iOS devices; the answer is this Mac OS X iTunes feature is not in the iOS 7 Radio app or elsewhere on iOS7.  People suggested downloading TuneIn Radio (free with over 50,000 stations).

  • Is the iPad safe for Internet banking?

    Is the ipad secure for Internet banking?

    Nothing in the world is 100 safe from everything.   Having said that,  most major banks have specific apps to accees their services .  Others, you access over the net the same as if you were using a pc.   I have been 100 dependant on the pad for banking connections and have had zeor problems.
    It is at least as safe as any other computer banking approach.

    It would depend on both the app and the network.
    I personally would not do any financial transaction over any public wifi network of any kind.
    I do have the app from my bank on my iPad, and pay bills from it.

  • HT201304 How safe is Internet on ipad2?

    How secure is ipad2 for Internet surfing, do I need Norton or similar?

    The iPad iOS is built on top of UNIX, a very secure system. There is no way anything could 'infect' the iPad - it's all locked down. You'll be safe =)

    That sounds like you are not authorized by your carrier to access the web over cellular sevice. Talk to your carrier to find out exactly what kind of service your account it authorized to use.

  • I think I have opened the sobig.f virus in my hotmail account and it keeps seding emails to my contacts. How do I stop it, and will it effect any of my other transactions like internet banking/shopping, is it safe?

    I think I have opened the sobig.f virus in my hotmail account and it keeps seding emails to my contacts. How do I stop it, and will it effect any of my other transactions like internet banking/shopping, is it safe To continue using my ipad ?

    This isn't due to malware. There is no known malware capable of infecting an iPad that has not been jailbroken (ie, hacked to allow apps from outside the App Store).
    As lizdance40 says, your Hotmail account has been hacked remotely. Change the password immediately. Hotmail accounts are popular targets, but as long as you choose a good password, and make sure that password is not the same as a password you use with any other account, you should be safe.
    I disagree with lizdance40's statement that you have to abandon the account and create a new e-mail address. If a hacker is able to get back in even after changing the password, the problem is not with the account itself. There's another vulnerability of some kind somewhere. Perhaps the account allows hackers to leave a "back door" to get back in (such as with GMail's delegation feature), in which case any such feature needs to be reviewed and have settings changed. Perhaps you are checking mail in an insecure manner while on an insecure network (ie, a wireless network that requires no password). Perhaps you are using a password on multiple accounts, and a different account has been compromised. Perhaps a hacker has used knowledge gained by prior access to your account to achieve "social hacking" (ie, convincing a tech to give him access because he has "forgotten the password"). There are many scenarios, but there's no good reason to abandon the account entirely.

  • How secure is Internet shopping with ipad mini

    How secure is Internet shopping with ipad mini

    Same as any other iPad or iPhone. 
    There has been no malware that I have heard of on the iPad.
    I would say it is very safe.  I buy on the inernet all the time.
    Optional: for a minor improvement in security, change your DNS server to Google
    You could change your DNS server to Googles. I use Google.
    Google provides free dns lookup.  Their numbers are:
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4

    Why do you say that?  I thought an https connection over 3g is no less (or more) secure than an https connection over wifi or hardline connection?
    Personally, I never use web sites for financial transactions though on my mobile devices.  I prefer to use the bank or financial institutions own app (most seem to have one).  I know my bank's app uses strong encryption from the very initiation of the session.

    Demo the same thing happened to me.  I purchased a seasons pass for Sons of Anarchy Season 6 and I've got the eposides on my IPad but Airplay won't allow me to watch the episodes without an internet connection or WiFi.  Is there anything else I can do so that I can watch these eposides without an internet or wifi connections?

    Good morning
    Hi Kathy,  my name is Johnnatan and I am part of the Small business Support community.
    If you have an old firmware it would be a good idea to go out to Cisco.com and see if there is any firmware updates. I have looked on the site for you and I see the latest firmware is:2.0.2.1
    http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/release.html?mdfid=282414016&softwareid=282487380&release=2.0.1.3&rellifecycle=&relind=AVAILABLE&reltype=all
    You can also try to reset your device to its factory settings, to reset your router please take a object that has a point and hold the reset button in on the back for "atleast" 30 seconds until the lights on the front to start flashing.
    About Mac address, you can map a Static IP with a specific mac address, You can folllow these steps in order to configure it.

  • How do I get the internet connection back onto ipad even though it connects to Wifi successfully and I have checked on my iPhone which does connect via the same wifi and to the internet?

    Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address shown starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make/model, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.
