credit cards & tablet security

How do you guys have things set up so that if you misplace or lose your tablet that someone couldn't use it and buy stuff. I have a visual password set but it's easy to see me entering it. Sign me worried.

I have Cerberus installed on both of my android devices. On my phone it is incredible. You can track it, lock it, take pictures, video, and audio, all remotely. You can even remotely wipe it.

On the tablet its a little tricky because it needs to be connected to WiFi, so I guess if somebody stole it you would hope they would try to use the internet and you could track it from there. But yeah. Cerberus is a terrific app.

I have a face unlock with a PIN backup setup on my tablet. It also rarely leaves the house.

My phone which does leave the house is protected by an eight character complex password. Which is a hassle but means that the phone will not be a problem if it is stolen.

I also have two stage authentication set up on my Google account and if either device were to go missing I can deauthorize it from my Google account immediately.

Let's hope you don't have your browsers set to store passwords.
