Protecting the Memory Card Data

The memory card on a Nokia device can store large amounts of personal data, such as pictures and other media files. Even with a locked phone, someone can still physically remove the memory card and potentially read its contents using a card reader. You can use a password to protect the memory card so that it cannot be used in other devices or card readers.
On a Series 60 device, you can lock the memory card via the Options>Set password menu in the Extras Memory menu. On a Series 40 device, you can set the memory card password via the Options>Set password menu when you select the memory card icon in the Gallery menu.
