BlackBerry Protect is a free application designed to keep your information secure if your BlackBerry smartphone goes missing. If you are on an applicable consumer data plan (enterprise plans are not supported at this time), you can download BlackBerry Protect and then log into the website where you can lock, locate or wipe your smartphone from wherever you are. You can also choose to have your crucial data backed up wirelessly and automatically, as often as you choose (daily, weekly, or monthly).
Can’t find your BlackBerry? Go to blackberry.com/protect to:
· Locate it on a map
· Set a password and lock it to protect your information
· Wipe all the contents
· Make your BlackBerry ring loudly to help find it
· Display a message on the homescreen instructing whoever finds it on how to return it
Wireless Backup and Restore
· Wirelessly back up contacts, calendar, memos, tasks, browser bookmarks, and text messages
· Automatically back up daily, weekly, or monthly
· Wirelessly restore your backed up data when switching to a new BlackBerry
· Save on data usage by: only backing up information that has changed from the previous backup (incremental backups) ; only backing up over WiFi; preventing backup while roaming
