Best Practices for Not Losing Your Phone

Losing your phone can be especially catastrophic if you have confidential material stored in it. As a result, it is imperative that you store all of your precious information on a cloud service, and be sure to backup all of your important data regularly. You should be prepared to erase all data on your phone if you know your phone has been permanently lost. If you’re a forgetful person, or prone to losing your possessions, then it’s important to be prepared.

Activate DFNDR’s anti-theft feature before you lose your phone, so that your data remains protected — even when it’s literally not in your hands. With anti-theft activated, you can track, block, locate your device, and even erase all of your data remotely in case of loss or theft. With just the push of a button, all confidential material will be eradicated from your phone, and you will no longer be vulnerable to data infiltration.

Be Aware of your Possessions

Be sure to keep your phone in a safe location, and always try to keep it in the same place. Secondly, avoid placing it on a tabletop when out to eat — this is an easy way for someone to swipe your phone.

Screen Lock

This is an easy barrier to help ward away thieves. If a thief sees a phone that he cannot access without swiping a pattern or entering a numerical code, then the thief will likely put the phone down and find another phone that is more easily accessible. The ability to lock your screen comes as a security feature to nearly all phone models nowadays.

Find My Phone Application

The same method of technology that guides you on your road trips can also guide you to your lost phone. Activate the Anti-theft feature, turn on the GPS feature of your phone, access the website my.psafe.com and you can acquire its coordinates (and a helpful map) to retrieve it.
