That Would Never Happen to Me...

Currently data theft is on the up. Undoubtedly, you will have heard stories recently of laptops containing government information left on trains or loss of memory sticks containing vital data. Although we are all guilty of making the “…how could anyone be so careless” comment, the truth is it’s an easy mistake to make.

So the answer? Well there is a mobile solution that goes by the name of Sprite Terminator. Although this is not a remote controlled impish being that retrieves your Mobile when it’s lost or stolen, in essence it does the same thing.

This piece of software can be installed onto your hand held device. Along with other features this allows you to; locate your phone using GPS, completely wipe the phone via a SMS message and lock all functionality to the device via a SMS.

So if it ever did happen to you, at least you’ve got your vital information secure, your data protected, and your device becomes useless to anyone who finds it.
