I just wish that all of our gadgets / cars / belongings could be as smart as these smart phones. Actually its the software that works its magic. Its called Maverick Secure Mobile. But its the feature list that this Symbian series 60 compliant software has that makes me so thrilled. The application works in hidden mode and cannot be viewed in the device, To launch / customize this application one has to press pre defined short keys and password.

You need to set up the alternate number during setup where all the reports are sent once the handset is stolen.

1. Protect your data :

In case of theft/loss, The moment SIM change is detected, Secure mobile will encrypt all the data on the device like the phonebook, images, messages etc. Now one can be assured about the privacy or misuse of the data on the device.


2. Track Device :

In case of loss/theft the application will send the phone number, device id, country code, operator name and area code(location) to the reporting device through sms. Secure Mobile will also report about activities performed on the stolen device via SMS. like Outgoing Calls Made to | Incoming Calls Received From | SMS Delivered to -----along with TEXT | New contacts Added to Phone book------Detailed


3. Retrieve Phonebook :

The most important data on any device are the contacts. Using MSM one can retrieve phonebook from the stolen device, the entire phonebook will be retrieved by sending sms contact=all from the reporting device. As soon as the stolen device receives sms it will start sending the entire phonebook through SMS, and this by using the data plan of the thief.


4. Spy Call :

If the owner calls from reporting device to the stolen device, it will be termed as Spy Call. Spy call will switch on the loudspeaker & Mic of the stolen device remotely, so that the caller can actually listen to the conversation other person is engaged in. This call will not give any notification/ ring to the stolen device. The person who receives spy call will not be able to know he is being called by owner. Even if he comes to know about spy call, he cannot disconnect the spy call.


5. Raise an alarm and disable the phone :

To disable stolen device remotely, send sms = hang from the Reporting device to the stolen device, and it will raise an alarm and start playing a loud Siren. MSM will also display a customized message. Here, one can put his Name, Address, alternate number and award amount. This would make sure that the theif panics and throws away the cell phone in the nearest trash can .


6. Data Back up :

Secure Mobile has a distinctive feature of incremental Data Back up. Using this feature one can back up all the data from the device to secure remote server using GPRS. So now all your data is very much secured and you can retrieve it without any hassle.

All the above mentioned features can be used even if the SIM is not changed,
