Abstract
As users' convenience increases, the issue of personal information leakage about smartphones is also becoming serious. Since all of the user's personal information needed to provide functions such as electronic banking services and personal file storage is stored in the smartphone, the user's important personal information may be exposed if the smartphone is lost or stolen. In order to protect this privacy, governments and telecommunications companies offer smartphone locking or initialization services, but there are many loopholes and problems. In this paper, we design and implement applications that prevent malicious use of a user's personal information stored on a smartphone when a smartphone is lost or stolen, and that automatically initializes the smartphone used after removing or altering the USIM chip and destroys the user's personal information stored within the phone. The proposed application prevents users from maliciously using their personal information when a smartphone is lost or stolen.
