Since mobile phones are usually small and constantly carried around, they can easily be forgotten, lost, or stolen. In addition to the resulting economic damage, the loss of the confidentiality and integrity of the data on the devices is particularly serious. An attacker may use a stolen mobile phone to access an organisation's critical information. Enabling the corresponding user to work again also entails costs and effort.
