Maverick Mobile: phone-thieves fighter

20th September 2008

The company Maverick Mobile has announced a new product to complicate life to cell phone thieves, or at least help their victims to minimize the damage caused by loss of important data.
In the process of installing Maverick Secure Mobile the user specifies a phone number of one more cell phone, (in documentation it is identified as â€œ receiving deviceâ€), which can take any information from a stolen mobile phone. Thanks to this functionality the rightful owner will be able to restore the contents of its phone book and return another important information stored in the memory of the lost device.
However, the program offers more interesting features. For example, at calling to a stolen cell phone with a host from the receiving device the application automatically activates the speaker and microphone, and allows you to listen to any phone talks of the â€œnew ownerâ€ unnoticed for latter.
The ability to remotely activate loud alarm allows finding the thief who have not gone too far, or, if he has, at least get on his nerves.
At the moment the application is at the stage of beta testing and will soon go on sale.
