Engineer Khalid Khalifa’s Interview with Business World NewsPaper

About the Event

The article discusses the widespread rumors regarding "magic codes" that supposedly prevent mobile phone hacking and provide absolute protection, a debate settled by Eng. Khaled, who confirmed that these codes are a mere technical myth with no actual ability to stop cyberattacks. He explained that the circulating codes are only standard network tools meant for checking line status or call forwarding. The report warns against falling for these claims, as they give users a false sense of security that makes them more vulnerable to hackers, emphasizing that genuine device protection relies not on secret numbers, but on technical awareness through consistently updating operating systems, enabling two-factor authentication, and avoiding suspicious links.
