A method for identity theft protection includes receiving an identity theft indicator indicating a possible loss or theft of a personal device, wherein the identity theft indicator includes at least one of a user-initiated signal, a geographic range indicator, an expired timer, a failure of a heart-beat verification, and a battery level indicator. The method further includes attempting contact of an owner of the personal device, wherein attempting contact includes at least one of transmitting a message to the owner over a telephone connection, transmitting an email to a registered email address of the owner, and transmitting a text-based message to a registered telephone number on the personal device. The method further includes protecting information stored on the personal device if attempting contact of the owner is not successful.
