* Android phones have an "unlock pattern" as one of the phone unlocking options, which is very popular amongst users. Rather than tapping numerical keys, you instead trace a pattern on a grid of nine dots. The problem is, many users who use unlock patterns have the ''blatantly visible'' unlock trail enabled (which is the default, and in older versions of Android it was a thick bright green trail), allowing anyone who is next to them (like a family member, a coworker, or an adjacent public transit passenger) to easily see the pattern. Failing that, because users tend to press somewhat firmly to enter the pattern, they may leave a fingerprint trail that makes it still obvious what the pattern is, reducing the maximum number of times one needs to guess to two (one for each directon).

The room housing them had no security guards or cameras, and the documents were only protected by a sheet of glass secured by four screws; when she initially pointed out the security concern, she was ignored.

Once he was done being mad at her, he increased security for the documents.
