In a traditional sense, the term 'theft' is often associated with pick-pocketing or armed robbery. However, in a rapidly progressing digital age, theft no longer has to be associated with a physical entity. This is because, theft of digital information is more common compared to theft of physical objects, and the problem only seems to be growing as technology moves forward.

The iPhone is no typical cell phone; it's a computer that fits in the palm of your hand. Consequently, the iPhone has become one of the most popular smart phones ever. It has its own fan base, and in some cases, it is superior to Android – mainly when it comes to security. However, there's no feature in the iPhone where users can hide and lock their sensitive information from other users, i.e. their spouses, siblings or other authorized users who may know the PIN. But what's really scary is if a criminal discovers a user's iPhone pass code – either by shoulder snooping or some other means – thieves will have full access to the victim's confidential files and folders. Thus, it becomes imperative that users' have some form of secondary data security on their iPhone.

The IT revolution has without doubt improved quality of life and everyday productivity. Today, people have become dependent on computers and the internet.
