It's a familiar, and disheartening, refrain to most cybersecurity pros when smartphone users reject stringent security features because they're just “too inconvenient.” But when it's repeated by the president of the United States, as allegedly was recently the case, it sets alarm bells clanging.

While Barack Obama's Blackberry use was restricted during his presidency and former Secretary of State Hilary Clinton was pilloried for using her private smart device for work, President Trump still wields at least two two devices issued to him by the government – one for phone calls and the other that lets him access Twitter and some news sites, Politico reported Tuesday.
