A mechanism that has been put in place to improve data security is passwords and locating devices. If a thief managed to get hold of your phone and you have a password it will be very difficult for them to get in especially as with some phones it locks after a certain amount of tries this happens on blackberries and iPhones, you will then have too get it unlocked at a phone shop, which costs extra money. On the Iphone you can download tracking devices so if your phone gets lost you can track it from another phone and get it back!
To stop people using their phones whilst driving you have bluetooth so people can talk and answer the phone using voice activation.
To stop people downloading from dodgy sites, these sites have been blocked.
