如果您已按照说明配置了Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016,请继续按照我们接下来要分享的步骤进行操作。
1.尝试定位您被盗的Android(T ry)智能手机(Android smartphone)
通过使用被盗Android 智能手机的(Android smartphone)GPS 传感器(GPS sensor)和无线连接,Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016可以帮助您定位它。当您发现自己处于这种情况时,您可以使用简单的SMS 命令从您的在线(SMS command)Bitdefender Central帐户或其他智能手机搜索您的智能手机。
找到您被盗的Android 设备(Android device)的第一种方法是使用您的Bitdefender Central帐户。您可以通过以下链接访问它:https://central.bitdefender.com ://central.bitdefender.com 。然后,使用您的Bitdefender 帐户(Bitdefender account)登录。
在您的Bitdefender帐户(Bitdefender)仪表板上(account dashboard),在我的设备(My Devices)部分,单击或点击您丢失的Android 设备(Android device)。
然后,单击或点击顶部菜单中的防盗(Anti-Theft)部分。
瞧!Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016现在将使用Google 地图(Google Maps)向您显示您的Android 设备(Android device)的最后已知位置。在地图上或下方,您还会看到一个框,其中包含您设备的确切地址位置(address location)。
要获取您的Android 设备的(Android device)最新位置(date location),请单击或点击(click or tap)定位(Locate)。这将使Bitdefender联系您的Android 智能手机或平板电脑(Android smartphone or tablet)并更新其在地图上的位置。
如果一切正常,现在您知道您的Android 设备(Android device)的位置。但是,如果在此过程中出现问题,或者您无法使用您的Bitdefender Central帐户,您可能需要使用SMS 命令(SMS command)来查找智能手机的位置。
Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016还可以使用SMS命令来告诉您安装了安全解决方案的丢失或被盗的(security solution)Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)的位置。要获取您的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)的位置,请使用任何其他手机向其发送以下SMS 消息(SMS message):BD-XXXX LOCATE,其中XXXX是您为丢失的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)的Bitdefender防盗(Anti-Theft)模块设置的PIN 码(PIN code)。
几秒钟后,您丢失或被盗的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)将以SMS 消息(SMS message)的形式回复。它将为您提供一个Google 地图(Google Maps)链接,该链接会告诉您智能手机在收到您的SMS 命令(SMS command)时所在的位置。
如果您点击收到的SMS 消息(SMS message)中的链接,您当前的智能手机将加载其默认网络浏览器并将(default web browser and point)您指向丢失的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)的位置。
现在您可以去取回您的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)了。很整洁(Pretty neat),对吧?
2.如果你有理由相信你被盗的智能手机就在附近,让它尖叫,以便你快速发现它
如果您已经使用过Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016的防盗(Anti-Theft)定位功能,并且您知道您被盗的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)就在附近,那么移动安全套件(security suite)还有另一个您可以使用的强大功能:它称为SCREAM。这正是它的作用!🙂
无论是通过您的Bitdefender Central帐户还是通过简单的SMS 短信(SMS text),您都可以远程命令被盗的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)发出尖叫声。当它收到您的命令时,即使您的智能手机设置为静音模式,它也会播放非常响亮的声音。这样,如果偷了你的智能手机的人就在附近,你可以很容易地发现他或她。那种极其响亮的声音是无法掩饰的。它很烦人,声音很大,甚至连 Rip Van Winkle也能吵醒!🙂
如果您更喜欢使用Bitdefender Central仪表板,请选择您丢失的Android 设备(Android device),然后转到防盗(Anti-Theft)部分。
在显示您的Android 设备(Android device)位置的地图上,您还会找到一个带有确切地址和几个按钮的框。第二个按钮称为警报(Alert),它会让你被盗的Android 尖叫(Android scream)。单击(Click)或点击它。
Bitdefender将让您有机会向被盗的Android 设备发送(Android device)短信(text message)并“播放警报”("Play alarm")。后一个选项会让您的Android “尖叫”,因此请确保在按下发送(Send)按钮之前检查它。
除了非常烦人且响亮的声音警报(sound alert)外,偷走您的Android 设备(Android device)的小偷也会收到您的消息,如下所示:
如果您无法访问网络浏览器(web browser),或者您只是更喜欢使用另一部手机,您可以向被盗的Android 设备发送(Android device)短信命令(SMS command),以使其“尖叫”。您必须发送的短信是(SMS text)“BD-XXXX SCREAM”,其中“XXXX”是您在被盗Android 设备上设置的(Android device)Bitdefender PIN 码(Bitdefender PIN code)。
与您使用Bitdefender Central时不同,“尖叫”短信命令(SMS command)不会让您向偷走您的 Android 设备的小偷发送短信。(text message)它会让你的设备播放(device play)非常响亮和非常烦人的声音。
无论您选择使用哪种方法使智能手机“尖叫”,一旦它开始播放警报声(alert sound),如果它在附近,您将很容易发现它。
3. 锁定你被盗的安卓智能手机(Android smartphone),确保上面的数据不会被小偷轻易访问
Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016中包含(Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016)的防盗(Anti-Theft)模块提供的另一个有用的安全功能(security feature)是锁定被盗智能手机的选项。通过您的Bitdefender Central在线帐户或借助SMS 消息(SMS message),您可以命令被盗的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)自行锁定。智能手机使用您在Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016中(Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016)为防盗(Anti-Theft)模块设置的安全PIN 码(PIN code)。虽然这不会使窃贼无法访问您的数据,但此操作将使他或她更难访问您的数据。
如果您想从您的Bitdefender Central网络帐户远程锁定您被盗的(web account)Android 设备(Android device),请选择您的设备并转到防盗(Anti-Theft)部分。
在地址框上(address box),在其他防盗(Anti-Theft)选项中,您还会找到一个名为Lock的按钮。它应该是该行中的第三个,并且看起来像一把锁。单击(Click)或点击它。
Bitdefender将要求您输入您为该特定Android 设备设置的(Android device)PIN 码(PIN code)。输入它并按下锁定(Lock)按钮。
Bitdefender Central将通知您“已向您的设备发送锁定命令”。("A lock command has been sent to your device.").
为了能够使用您的Android 设备(Android device),偷走它的小偷别无选择,只能输入您在Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016中设置的(Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016)PIN 码(PIN code)。而且他或她几乎不可能猜到您的PIN 码(PIN code),因此您的数据应该是安全的,至少在一段时间内是安全的。
Bitdefender还允许您使用SMS 命令锁定被盗的(SMS command)Android 设备(Android device)。如果您更喜欢使用Bitdefender Central,请使用任何手机将此SMS 短信(SMS text)发送到您被盗的Android 设备(Android device):“BD-XXXX LOCK”。请注意,该命令的XXXX部分是您在被盗的Android 设备(Android device)上为Bitdefender设置的(Bitdefender)PIN 码(PIN code)。
无论您喜欢使用Bitdefender Central还是SMS 命令(SMS command),Lock命令的效果都是一样的。
4.让你被盗的Android智能手机(Android smartphone)给你打电话,这样你就可以追踪它的小偷
有时,聆听偷走您智能手机的小偷所说的话可以帮助您识别他或她。Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016包含此功能,通过简单的SMS 命令(SMS command),您被盗的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)可以给您回电。谁知道呢,也许小偷其实是你身边的人,你只要听他或她的声音就能找到他或她的身份。
要让您被盗的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)给您回电,请使用您拥有的任何手机发送此SMS 命令(SMS command):“BD-XXXX CALLME”。该命令的“XXXX”部分是您在被盗Android 设备上设置的(Android device)PIN 码(PIN code)。
通话过程非常快,因此智能手机的小偷几乎没有机会注意到有人在听。
5.当有人从您的Android智能手机更换(Android smartphone)SIM卡(SIM card)时,通知您设置的信任号码
Bitdefender Mobile Security的防盗(Anti-Theft)模块包括另一个非常有用的功能:当有人从您的Android 智能手机更换(Android smartphone)SIM 卡时,它可以使用(SIM card)SMS 文本(SMS text)通知您设置的可信号码。如果您是更换SIM 卡(SIM card)的人,则无需担心。但是,如果您丢失了智能手机或有人偷了(smartphone or someone stole)它,如果找到它的人更换了SIM 卡(SIM card),那么很明显该人无意归还您的智能手机。Bitdefender 的SIM 更换功能会从您的新(SIM Change)SIM 卡(SIM)中发送一条 SMS 消息被盗的智能手机(stolen smartphone)到您设置的可信号码。这样,你就会知道小偷的电话号码(phone number),这是一个非常重要的信息。谁知道呢,你可能会发现小偷其实是你认识的人。如果你不这样做,至少你会知道你应该向哪个号码发送擦除(Wipe)SMS 命令。
Bitdefender 的防盗(Anti-Theft)模块中的SIM 更改(SIM Change)功能默认启用且无法禁用。如果您想查看它的状态,您会发现它列在Bitdefender Mobile Security的防盗(Anti-Theft)模块的SMS 控制(SMS Control)部分。
6. 擦拭你被盗的安卓智能手机(Android smartphone),当你失去了找回它的所有希望时
最后,如果没有任何效果并且您失去了找回被盗Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)的机会,您应该将其擦除。这意味着您应该从中删除所有个人数据,以便没有人可以访问您的个人或机密信息。毕竟,我们的智能手机是我们最亲密的计算设备。
有两种发出擦除(Wipe)命令的方法。您可以使用您的Bitdefender Central帐户,也可以通过您之前在Bitdefender的防盗(Anti-Theft)模块中设置的可信电话号码(phone number)从您被盗的设备发送SMS 命令。(SMS command)
在Bitdefender Central 中(Bitdefender Central),选择您被盗的Android 设备(Android device)并转到防盗(Anti-Theft)部分。
然后,在地址框上(address box),单击或点击(click or tap)擦除(Wipe)按钮。它是列表中的最后一个,它看起来像一个垃圾桶(trash bin)。
Bitdefender会要求您确认您对此有把握,因为擦除操作是不可逆转的。如果您失去了找回被盗Android 设备(Android device)的希望,请继续并擦除它。选中“我知道这将删除我的设备中的所有数据而没有任何恢复选项”("I understand that this will delete all data from my device without any recovery options")的选项,然后按下擦除(Wipe)按钮。
如果您无法访问您的Bitdefender Central,或者您更喜欢使用SMS消息,您也可以通过这种方式发送擦除(Wipe)命令。要擦除被盗的Android 设备(Android device),您必须向其发送此短信命令(SMS command):“BD-XXXX WIPE”。“ XXXX”是您在被盗Android 设备上设置的(Android device)Bitdefender PIN 码(Bitdefender PIN code)。请务必记住,为了使此命令起作用,您必须仅从被盗Android 设备的(Android device)Bitdefender Anti-Theft模块中设置的受信任号码发送它。
请务必记住,擦除(Wipe)命令是不得已而为之的操作,只有在确定没有机会找回被盗的(resort action)Android 设备(Android device)时才应使用它。擦除设备意味着以后无法恢复其中的任何数据,您或任何其他人都无法恢复。
结论
如果您有Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016来保护您的Android 智能手机(Android smartphone),那么您可以做很多事情以防它被盗。防盗(Anti-Theft)模块可以帮助您定位被盗的智能手机(stolen smartphone),它可以帮助您保护其中的数据,它甚至可以触发一个完整的擦除过程,删除存储在您被盗的(erase process)Android 设备(Android device)上的所有私人信息。您觉得这些安全功能有用吗?您希望Bitdefender在其(Bitdefender)Android安全产品(security product)的未来更新中添加任何其他内容吗?

What's required before you can recover your stolen Android smartphone using Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016
I n this following article, we assume that you have had installed Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 on your Android smartphone and that you have configured its Anti-Theft module , before it got stolen. Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 is one of the best mobile security solutions available for Android devices and, if you want to take a closer look at what it has to offer, our review might interest you: Security for everyone - Reviewing Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016.
There are a couple of things you must configure before you can use the features offered by Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 to recover your stolen Android smartphone . They are all simple tasks to do and you will find them all described in this article: 6 Steps to make sure that you can always locate your Android device.
If you have configured Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 as instructed, then go ahead and follow the steps we are going to share next.
1. T ry to locate your stolen Android smartphone
By using the GPS sensor and the wireless connection of your stolen Android smartphone, Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 can help you locate it. When you find yourself in such a situation, you can search for your smartphone either from your online Bitdefender Central account, or from another smartphone, using a simple SMS command.
The first method to locate your stolen Android device is for you to use your Bitdefender Central account. You can access it by following this link: https://central.bitdefender.com. Then, log in with your Bitdefender account.
On your Bitdefender's account dashboard, in the My Devices section, click or tap on your lost Android device.
Then, click or tap the Anti-Theft section from the top menu.
And voila! Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 will now use Google Maps to show you the last known location of your Android device. On or beneath the map, you will also see a box with the exact address location of your device.
To get an up to date location of your Android device, click or tap Locate. This will make Bitdefender contact your Android smartphone or tablet and update its location on the map.
If everything worked well, now you know your Android device's location. However, if something went wrong along the way, or if you cannot use your Bitdefender Central account, you might want to use an SMS command to find the location of your smartphone.
Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 can also use SMS commands in order to tell you the location of a lost or stolen Android smartphone on which you have had the security solution installed. To get the location of your Android smartphone, use any other phone to text the following SMS message to it: BD-XXXX LOCATE , where XXXX is the PIN code you set for Bitdefender's Anti-Theft module from the lost Android smartphone.
In a couple of seconds, your lost or stolen Android smartphone will answer in the form of an SMS message. It will give you a Google Maps link that will tell you where your smartphone was when it received your SMS command.
If you tap on the link from the SMS message you've got, your current smartphone will load its default web browser and point you to the location of your lost Android smartphone.
Now you can go and retrieve your Android smartphone. Pretty neat, right?
2. If you have reasons to believe that your stolen smartphone is nearby, make it scream so that you can quickly spot it
If you've already used the Anti-Theft location feature from Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 and you know that your stolen Android smartphone is nearby, the mobile security suite has another great feature which you can use: it's called SCREAM. And that's exactly what it does! 🙂
Either from your Bitdefender Central account or with a simple SMS text message, you can remotely command your stolen Android smartphone to scream. When it receives your command, your smartphone will play a really loud sound, even if it's set to silent mode. This way, if the one who stole your smartphone is nearby, you can easily spot him or her. There's no hiding from that extremely loud sound. It's annoying and loud enough to wake even Rip Van Winkle! 🙂
If you prefer using your Bitdefender Central dashboard, select your lost Android device and then go to the Anti-Theft section.
On the map that shows you the location of your Android device, you will also find a box with its exact address and a few buttons. The second button is called Alert and it's the one that will make your stolen Android scream. Click or tap on it.
Bitdefender will give you the opportunity to send a text message to your stolen Android device and to "Play alarm". This latter option is the one that will make your Android "scream" so make sure that it is checked before you press the Send button.
Besides the very annoying and loud sound alert, the thief who stole your Android device will also get your message, like this:
If you don't have access to a web browser or if you simply prefer using another phone, you can send an SMS command to your stolen Android device in order to make it "scream". The SMS text message you have to send is "BD-XXXX SCREAM" , where "XXXX" is the Bitdefender PIN code that you have set on your stolen Android device.
Unlike when you use Bitdefender Central , the "scream" SMS command doesn't let you send a text message to the thief who stole your Android device. It will make your device play that very loud and very annoying sound though.
Regardless of the method you chose to use in order to make your smartphone "scream", once it starts playing the alert sound, you will spot it very easily if it's nearby.
3. Lock your stolen Android smartphone to make sure that the data on it is not easily accessed by thieves
Another useful security feature offered by the Anti-Theft module included in Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 is its option to lock your stolen smartphone. Either from your Bitdefender Central online account or with the help of a SMS message, you can command your stolen Android smartphone to lock itself. The smartphone uses the security PIN code you've set for the Anti-Theft module in Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016. While it will not make it impossible for the thief to access your data, this action will make it harder for him or her to get access to it.
If you want to remote lock your stolen Android device from your Bitdefender Central web account, select your device and go to the Anti-Theft section.
On the address box, among the other Anti-Theft options, you will also find a button called Lock. It should be the third one in the row and it will look like a lock. Click or tap on it.
Bitdefender will ask you to enter the PIN code you have set for that specific Android device. Enter it and press the Lock button.
Bitdefender Central will let you know that "A lock command has been sent to your device.".
To be able to use your Android device, the thief who stole it will have no option but to enter the PIN code you set in Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016. And it's almost impossible for him or her to guess your PIN code, so your data should be safe, at least for a while.
Bitdefender also lets you lock your stolen Android device using an SMS command. If you prefer it to using Bitdefender Central , use any phone to send this SMS text message to your stolen Android device: "BD-XXXX LOCK". Note that the XXXX part of the command is the PIN code you have set for Bitdefender on your stolen Android device.
Whether you prefer using Bitdefender Central or a SMS command, the effect of the Lock command will be the same.
4. Make your stolen Android smartphone call you so that you can track its thief
Sometimes, listening to what the thief who stole your smartphone says can help you identify him or her. Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 includes this feature and, with a simple SMS command, your stolen Android smartphone can call you back. Who knows, maybe the thief is actually someone close to you and you can find who he or she is, just by listening to his or her voice.
To make your stolen Android smartphone call you back, use any phone you have to send this SMS command: "BD-XXXX CALLME". The "XXXX" part of the command is the PIN code that you have set on the stolen Android device.
The calling process is done really fast, so there's very little chance for your smartphone's thief to notice that someone is actually listening.
5. When someone changes the SIM card from your Android smartphone, notify the trusted number that you have set
The Anti-Theft module from Bitdefender Mobile Security includes another very useful feature: it can notify the trusted number that you have set, using a SMS text, whenever someone changes the SIM card from your Android smartphone. If you are the one who changed the SIM card,, it's nothing to worry about. However, if you lost your smartphone or someone stole it, if the one who found it changed the SIM card, then it's pretty clear that person has no intention on giving your smartphone back. Bitdefender's SIM Change feature sends an SMS message from the new SIM in your stolen smartphone to the trusted number that you have set. That way, you will know the phone number of the thief, which is a very important piece of information. Who knows, you might find out that the thief is actually someone you know. And if you don't, at least you will know to which number you should send the Wipe SMS command.
The SIM Change feature from Bitdefender's Anti-Theft module is enabled by default and cannot be disabled. If you want to check its status, you will find it listed in the SMS Control section of the Anti-Theft module from Bitdefender Mobile Security.
6 . Wipe your stolen Android smartphone, when you've lost all hope of recovering it
Finally, if nothing works and you've lost any chance of recovering your stolen Android smartphone, you should wipe it. That means you should erase every bit of personal data from it so that nobody can access your personal or confidential information. After all, our smartphones are our most intimate computing devices.
There are two ways of issuing a Wipe command. You can either use your Bitdefender Central account, or you can send an SMS command from the trusted phone number that you have previously set in Bitdefender's Anti-Theft module, from your stolen device .
In Bitdefender Central , select your stolen Android device and go to the Anti-Theft section.
Then, on the address box, click or tap on the Wipe button. It's the last one from the list and it looks like a trash bin.
Bitdefender will ask you to confirm that you are sure about this, as the wipe action is irreversible. If you lost any hope of getting your stolen Android device back, then carry on and wipe it. Check the option that says "I understand that this will delete all data from my device without any recovery options" and then press the Wipe button .
If you cannot access your Bitdefender Central , or if you prefer using SMS messages, you can send the Wipe command this way too. To wipe your stolen Android device, you will have to send this SMS command to it: "BD-XXXX WIPE". The "XXXX" is the Bitdefender PIN code that you have set on the stolen Android device. It's very important to keep in mind that, in order for this command to work, you will have to send it only from the trusted number you have set in the Bitdefender Anti-Theft module from the stolen Android device.
It's very important to remember that the Wipe command is a last resort action and you should use it only if you are sure that you have no chance of getting your stolen Android device back. Wiping the device means that no data from it will be recoverable later, not by you or any other people.
Conclusion
If you have Bitdefender Mobile Security 2016 to secure your Android smartphone, there are more than a couple of things you can do in case it gets stolen. The Anti-Theft module can help you locate your stolen smartphone, it can help you protect the data on it and it can even trigger a full erase process that removes all the private information stored on your stolen Android device.
