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\u2019re a forgetful person, or prone to losing your possessions, then it\u2019s important to be prepared.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Activate DFNDR\u2019s anti-theft feature before you lose your phone, so that your data remains protected \u2014 even when it\u2019s 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.

It\u2019s the same with waking up and realizing that your purse is empty or missing. The medium through which you conduct all of your communications is lost somewhere, and you have no way to find it. Further: is it lost, or was it stolen? Many people have felt this dreadful feeling. Here are a few ways you can prevent losing your phone, in addition to activating the anti-theft feature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Be Aware of your Possessions<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">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 \u2014 this is an easy way for someone to swipe your phone. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Screen Lock<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">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.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Find My Phone Application<\/b><\/p>\n<p>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 <a href=\"http:\/\/my.psafe.com\/\">my.psafe.com<\/a> and you can acquire its coordinates (and a helpful map) to retrieve it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It can be hard to keep a watchful eye on your cellphone 24\/7.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":83,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8445","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-performance"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
