This study aimed to determine the various practices of faculty members and students of Eastern Samar State University in terms of mobile phones security. It was determined that most of the faculty members and the students saved sensitive data (ATM pins, passwords, images, videos) in their mobile phones without using any encryption methods. It was discovered further that more than 50% of the faculty and students were not aware of the security features in their respective mobile phones therefore exposing their sensitive data to hacking, intrusion and data theft. The results of this research can be used as inputs in the conduct of a University-wide Mobile security awareness campaign to increase the overall knowledge of students and faculty members on mobile security.
