For those of you who are worried for data on the mobile in case of your mobile being lost or stolen, there is free tool F-Secure Anti-Theft for Mobile.

It has next functions with simple sending SMS to phone:

•    Remote lock
•    Remote locate
•    Remote wipe

With F-Secure Anti-Theft for Mobile, you can remotely lock the phone and protect the information it contains with a single SMS message. With the help of the remote locator feature, you always know where your phone is located. For “remote locate function”, you should consider possible privacy concerns.

If the phone is stolen and the thief changes the SIM card, the Theft Control feature locks automatically the phone and informs you of the new number. As an ultimate safety measure to prevent misuse, it is possible to erase all the data on the phone with Remote Wipe.
