Safeguard Your Privacy Smartphone users must take steps to protect their private, professional, and sensitive information:
• Always use a screen-lock feature with a strong password• Set up remote lock, tracking, and wipe capabilities• Introduce security protocols for employees and colleagues• Establish a process for dealing with lost or stolen phones• Take an inventory of your company’s mobile phones
You can replace your device, but if your data falls into the wrong hands, it is impossible to turn back. Protect your professional and personal data and see that your colleagues and friends do the same.
You can get your phone back. You can’t get your privacy back.

SYMANTEC CANADA HONEY STICK PROJECT
I found your phone downtown before the snowstorm. It is still in working order. I went through your contacts to find your email address to contact you.
I would like a finders’ fee because I could have left your phone to be completely destroyed by the snow and/or found by someone and sold your personal information to who knows who.
Mr. Slick :)
