Misplacing your mobile or having it stolen is more than just a hassle unless you have Anti-theft

Jan. 7, 2012 - PRLog -- It isn’t always easy to bolster odds of actually receiving lost devices, but with Quick Heal Mobile Security it seems that you can not only bolster but actually retrieve a lost object.
The leading security solution provider recently branched out into the mobile security domain with its Mobile Security product addressing the global Android market. The intelligent software comes packed with a host of features such as virus protection, call blocking, SMS blocking, anti-theft and data protection features. A robust Anti-theft feature allows the user to trace or locate a lost or stolen phone and remotely wipe data or lock a lost or stolen phone if the need arises.
The smaller the mobile devices get the easier they are to lose. These devices being an indispensable part of our lives often carry hoards of personal information. It always helps to know that something can get you peace of mind.  And that is what the software has lived up to.
When Rupali (name changed) accidentally left her mobile in an auto rickshaw in Pune, she had almost left all hopes for retrieving it. After a month when the person who had allegedly found it changed the SIM, Quick Heal Mobile Security immediately locked the mobile and sent a notification SMS to the alternate number that the victim had provided during registration. The victim traced her mobile to a handset repair store located at Vashi, Mumbai.
“The increasing use of gadgets makes it more likely for us to lose or misplace them.  This brought the thought that it would be neat to fit in a feature that allows the user to remotely lock, trace or track in case the gadget is lost or stolen. The powerful and built in Anti-Theft feature of our Mobile Security solution allows the user to remotely lock the device and block unwarranted usage. Effective solutions that protect and recover your personal information have to be simple and easy-to-use and our product is just that”, says Sanjay Katkar, Chief Technical Officer and Co-Founder, Quick Heal Technologies.
