help me
 
As on every personal device you would have some private stuff stored on it (from pictures to password lists etc). Now, is there any way to strongly encrypt this information in the case the handset got lost or stolen?

Is there a build-in solution for this? If no are there any external/3rd-party solutions available?

Open source and freeware solutions are preferable.

Thanks guys!

Re: help me
 
Welcome to our forum. Please could you change/edit your thread title. In principle there are three reasons why people post, first they need help, second they would tell us something new and third are spammers they would like to do advertise.
Now imagine a forum full of threads like this.

Please help.
Help me.
Neeeeed help help.
Something new.
New you would never know.
.....

So you see it would be better when the thread title contain some related words to your questions. Thanks

To your problem there will be nothing 100% safe. With knowledge, calculating power and time you could open everything. So you could make the circle of people, who could gain access smaller.
Have a look at "truecrypt" or "cryptsetup". So now it is time to use our search function with the keyword you have right now.
