To be able to use it, users can simply log in to your website and enable features BlackBerry Protect ‘ring loud’. This feature will remove noise, confirming the location where he is. These features will work as long as phones lit. When the BlackBerry is lost in public areas, the portal apliaksi Protect BlackBerry can be used to create a password and lock all the device settings remotely. This helps ensure that all data stored in the smartphone stay safe.
In addition, this application allows GPS functionality to track the location of the BlackBerry is lost with the sniper. If BlackBerry is stolen, time to rely on the remote wipe feature, its function is to remove all existing data on the BlackBerry, including those contained in the SIM card.
Furthermore, with wireless backup function, existing data on the BlackBerry is lost can be restored to a new BlackBerry. However, this function must be setup first.
