Apart from this we can do some extra exercise to find and safety for our mobile and data.
Take advantage of the lost function

Smartphones usually have a lost function that allows you to know the location information and current status of the device. You can also use the same function provided by security software.
If you search for location information using these functions and find that it is in an unnatural location or cannot be found, you can remotely lock it or delete the data. * To use these functions, it is necessary to turn on the settings in advance.

Function when Android Mobile is lost

For those who use Android, the official function "Find my Google device" is installed. By logging into your Google account on a web browser, you can locate, lock, and wipe your device. McAfee's mobile security products also support remote locking and data erasure in addition to virus protection.

Function when iPhone is lost

If you are using an iPhone, you can find out the location information of the terminal with the application "Find iPhone". In addition to location information, there are multiple functions that are necessary in case of loss, such as remote locking of the device and displaying a message on the lock screen.

Contact Your  Carrier {Sim Provider}

After locking your smartphone using the lost/lost feature, contact your carrier and report the loss or theft. You can take necessary measures such as temporary suspension of services according to the prescribed procedures. If you leave it as it is, your smartphone may be charged a lot or used for criminal activities.

Change Your Linked Email Password

Even if you lock your device and turn off your phone, cybercriminals may already be logging into your social networks, online banking and email accounts. Use another device such as a computer or tablet to change your password. If your password has already been changed by someone, please contact each business and ask them to take measures.

If you have to erase the data or buy a new smartphone, it is also annoying that the data such as photos and contacts will be lost. Always make a backup in case of loss. You can restore to that backup state.

Conclusion-

In today's era, mobile has become an important part of our life, it contains a lot of secret and simple data. We have to use it with caution and taking backup from time to time is the best habit. Even then if our mobile is lost then it should be done carefully.
