Keep your sensitive data hidden with BlackBerry Privacy Shade.

The notion that someone might hack into your personal life simply by glancing at a text message seems pretty absurd, as does the idea that someone might steal corporate secrets upon glimpsing a few lines from a work email. That isn't to say neither of those situations will ever happen, of course. Just that there are more pressing, tangible threats to our privacy and security than a nosy onlooker.

At the same time, even if a screen snooper isn't likely to steal our login information, our smartphones are more closely linked to our private lives than ever. And it doesn't often occur to us that when we use our devices in public, we're potentially sharing what's on our screen - what's going on in our life - with everyone around us. I'd wager chances are pretty high that, excepting a few rare circumstances, there's a lot of stuff on your phone you wouldn't willingly show to a stranger.

Private conversations. Sensitive email threads. Personal photos. Embarrassing Google searches. If you're in public - whether on transit, at a coffee shop or even in the office - these are all fair game. And that's exactly the reason Privacy Shade exists.
