Overseas
studies suggest one in 10 young people have taken a nude photo of themselves
and sent it, and one in five young people have seen such an image.
“Sexting
is part of many people’s courtship now,” Dr Lauren Rosewarne, a University of
Melbourne pop culture researcher.
“There’s
no single demographic doing this — any sexually active person with access to
technology can do it.”
To
make sure these pics don't come back to haunt you, the rule of thumb is to
delete them right away and to make sure your phone has a secure password on it.
But if you want to hold onto your digital sexts, you'll need to take steps to
keep them as private as you can.
From
password-protected galleries to photo editing vaults, here are some security
apps where you can safely store your sexiest photos.

the app server. The data in the smartphone is encrypted to make sure no one
