Hi folks,

Thinking to jailbreak my ipad however would like to check wif u guys, is jailbreaked iPad safe for doing all banking login? I mean, will my banking info be leaked? As I saw the newspaper report that all phone/iPad will be unsecured after jailbreaked.

Thanks.

Jailbreak is like digging a hole out of a very secure prison. You can free yourself out of the restrictions from Apple, but at the same time, you are digging yourself a tunnel for others to come in and attack you. tongue.gif

I personally wont use a jailbroken iphone/ipad to use those online banking things, for your info, you cant use CIMB clicks app in iOS if you have a jailbroken iDevice. But again, i am not saying you will get hacked 100%, but then you are at nearly 100% safe if you dont jailbreak your iphone/ipad smile.gif

I would not advise to use banking login with an jailbroken iPad.

But if you have to use it, i would advise you to change your root password before you start using. smile.gif

It is better to use a PC rather than an iPad.

Even when my devices are not jailbroken, I still dont do that
