Your company provides employees with work smartphones, and an employee has reported their phone stolen. Which feature should you ensure is activated to aid in recovering the device?
Locator applications are essential tools in enhancing the security of mobile devices. When activated, these apps allow users to track the geographical location of their device, which is especially useful if the device is lost or stolen. Remote wipe functionalities also exist in such applications, adding an additional layer of protection by allowing the user to erase all data on the device if recovery isn't possible. While screen locks protect the phone against unauthorized access, they do not assist in locating the device. Antivirus software helps protect against malware but does not provide location services.
