I'm not sure people are aware of the built-in security in their Nokia phones. Especially for a mobile device that follows you arround everywhere, I think, security should be of particular interest.
- You can lock your E90 remotely via SMS. All information in the phone is secured that way and only a password will unlock the phone. Great thing if you loose your phone or just forget it on the table of your office. Also, in case it gets stolen, you have peace of mind that at least your confidential data is completely inaccessible.
- You can protect/lock/encrypt the removable SD memory card, so when someone gets access to your phone and steals the card, inserting it into an external usb card reader or another Nokia won't be of any use. This is excellent! :)
I actively use both of the above and see zero slow-down. Of course I could lock my phone automatically all the time, or use PIN request at each power up when you switch the phone, but why create annoyances and hurdles to irritate myself? IF the phone is stolen, I'll just lock it. Both the phone and the card are protected.
If, anyway, the card is changed, there is one more option:
- ask for a security code when SIM changed.
