Mobile and Web Client Security

Phones and tablets may contain saved BNC passwords, private messages and active dashboard sessions.

Protect the device accordingly.

Recommended precautions

• Use a screen lock.
• Keep the operating system and browser updated.
• Install IRC apps only from a trusted source.
• Do not share exported app configurations.
• Avoid saving passwords on a shared device.
• Sign out of the dashboard after using a public device.
• Review screenshots before uploading them.
• Do not install unknown IRC scripts or certificates.

Lost or stolen device

If a device containing your saved BNC password is lost:

1. Secure your registered email account.
2. Change your Eggy BNC password through the website.
3. Update the password on your remaining devices.
4. Review your dashboard network and account settings.
5. Report any unauthorised changes.

A password change will require every saved desktop and mobile client to use the new value.
