This means that we are instantly more at risk of having it stolen or simply leaving it somewhere and losing it.

Even after we have arrived at our destination we see people leaving phones on top of a table while they have a drink or some dinner. This is providing theives with the ideal opposrtunity to grab the phone and run. Mostly they are gone before you even realise.

So as well as taking some care with regards to how and where you use your phone you can also install some software known as anti-theft software.

This will allow you to instantly encrypt data and lock down your phone should you lose it or have it stolen. In fact the software will even track and help you pin point the phone on a map.

Now at least you know your data is safe and your phone cannot be used to run up excessive bills.

The best anti-theft software we came across was from a company called Snuko and their Snuko Anti-Theft for mobiles.
