Do you have your phone tracking Turned On?
Should your phone ever go missing, you can track its location and remotely lock or erase it. Here are a few steps to take to make sure you're set up to do this.
On Android, go into the Google Settings app (separate from the regular Settings app) and tap Security. Under Android Device Manager, make sure both "Remotely locate this device" and Allow remote lock and erase" are turned on. With those two settings, you can track your phone on a map from your computer and erase your phone should it be stolen or misplaced.
For iPhones and other iOS-powered gadgets, Apple has Find My iPhone, a feature that is turned on by default and lets you find your iOS device on a map, lock it, and remotely wipe it. Log in into the Find iPhone app with your iCloud account to check that it's set up correctly.
Once stolen a deluge of personal information may be in the hands of the bad guys. Protect your identity with full household 24 hour protection for pennies a day, it is worth it.
Keep Safe.
