What is a Pager?
A pager is a device that sends and receives messages. It was very popular in its time. Earlier, it was popular all over the world including India. It was especially used by doctors, businessmen, and emergency service professionals.
A pager device sends and receives text messages via radio signals. This was mainly useful when mobile phones were not that popular and mobile service was very expensive.
Pagers can be hacked
The security system of pagers is not very strong. The pager system is not encrypted, so the data contained in it can be captured and hacked. Afterwards the hackers can issue their commands, etc.
Cell phones can also be hacked
Mobile systems are advanced and modern compared to pagers. Hacking a mobile phone is much more difficult than hacking a pager. Hacking a mobile phone also depends on its operating system and security system. iOS is considered more secure than Android. A mobile phone is more secure than a pager. However, it is also wrong to say that it can never be hacked.
How can a pager or cell phone become a bomb?
How can a smartphone or pager become a bomb? Today, small explosives can be easily packed into devices. Explosives such as C4 are used for this purpose.
These explosives are installed in the battery of a phone or pager. They then use wireless signals. These signals can be sent in any way, via Bluetooth or the mobile network, causing the battery to heat up and react explosively.
