Week 10 posting - Lost/Stolen Mobile Device

 What happens to a device when it is lost or stolen? Thankfully there are solutions in place now that can help prevent unwanted access of the data on a mobile device. All Apple iPhones and iPad come with a built-in security feature in case the device is lost or stolen. You are able to login to your Apple ID on iCloud.com/find in order to help locate a lost or stolen device. In order for you to use this feature, Find My must be enabled on the device prior to it being lost or stolen. Once logged in, you can select your lost or stolen device and set it to lost and display contact information for it to be returned to you. Otherwise, if it is stolen you can completely wipe everything from the device providing it is connected to a network at the time you are trying to wipe it.
