Explanation:
Screen-lock is a security feature that requires the user to enter a password after a short period of inactivity
before they can access the system again. This feature ensures that if your device is left unattended or is
lost or stolen, it will be difficult for anyone else to access your data or applications.
Device encryption encrypts the data on the device. This feature ensures that the data on the device cannot
be accessed in a useable form should the device be stolen.
Remote wipe is the process of deleting data on a device in the event that the device is stolen. This is
performed over remote connections such as the mobile phone service or the internet connection and helps
ensure that sensitive data is not accessed by unauthorized people.
