Ever lost, misplaced or had your BlackBerry stolen? Ever considered what personal information is easily accessible to anyone who happens to pick up your phone?

Now you can protect yourself and your data with BuddyGuard™, the new application for securing your BlackBerry.

BuddyGuard allows you to remotely access and control your BlackBerry using commands sent by SMS or email messages. With BuddyGuard you can lock your BlackBerry, retrieve its GPS location or play a tone to help find a misplaced device, backup your contacts or even wipe your personal data if your phone is unrecoverable.

BuddyGuard will also detect when someone changes your SIM card and send you a notification. You can even have it AutoLock your BlackBerry if the SIM card is removed in an attempt to prevent you from sending commands.

ALERT: Assists in finding your phone by playing a tone, even if the phone is in silent or vibrate-only. Secures your phone by locking it and displaying your contact information.

LOCK: Protects your data and phone by locking it and displaying your contact information. Will stay locked until you enter your password, even if your BlackBerry® is rebooted!
