Summary:
|
Smartphones are proliferating dramatically and have become an indispensable part of our daily life. Many smartphone customers have had their phones stolen. A smartphone anti-theft measures, aka, a kill switch tool, should provide the capability to:
- wipe remotely the authorized user's data that is on the smartphone in the event it is lost or stolen;
- render the smartphone inoperable to an unauthorized user;
- prevent reactivation without authorized user's permission to the extent technologically feasible; and
- reverse the inoperability if the smartphone is recovered by the authorized user and restore user data on the smartphone to the extent feasible.
Recommendation ITU-T X.msec-9 will focus on the functional security requirements and functional architecture based on the general requirements described by GSMA.
