Securing android. topic


With the recent release of Sunshine 3.0 I was finally able to liberate my verizon m8. However with this new found freedom I also find myself worrying about the new found responsibility that comes with a rooted phone running CM12 with an unlocked bootloader.

My question is this:
How do i keep my phone as secure as possible?

I have been told that re-locking my bootloader will break my phone because of the signing process (Verizon is evil) and that encrypting the phone is futile because of root.. What can I do to protect my phone and how hard is it for someone to circumvent any security measures I can come up with?

P.S. This paranoia was prompted by a friend sending me this video.
