Re: Erasure of Mobile Phone Data

["Tupker, Mike" <mtupker () MTMERCY EDU>]

If you are on exchange 2007 there is an easy wipe feature in the manager as well as the user OWA interface. Exchange 
2003 has something as well but it's a download from MS that needs to be installed.

We found out during testing that the exchange 2007 wipe feature will also wipe any memory cards in the device as well.

Subject: [SECURITY] Erasure of Mobile Phone Data

Greetings All,

does anyone use or have knowledge of a program or simple user based method that can erase all user data from mobile 
phones (I am talking voice, text and MMS messages, data (encrypted and unencrypted), web history, saved passwords, 
contacts etc etc).

Thanks,

Tim
