Abstract

The study presents the problem of the lack of safety rules for using mobile telecommunications devices, i.e. smartphones, smartwatches, mobile phones during military operations. Despite its many advantages, the mobile phone also poses a threat to people and their surroundings during military operations. Attention was focused on the lack of developed safety rules and on available methods of locating the device. At the same time, attention was paid to how easy it is to track a phone and a person during an armed conflict. The advisability of owning and using secured mobile devices by persons responsible for managing state and military administration was indicated. A separate place was devoted to the awareness of people using mobile devices who may, through unintentional correspondence, provide important information to the opposing party. Practical solutions and conclusions resulting from a similar situation in Ukraine during the ongoing armed conflict were also indicated.
