Capability

Wipe device by SMS message

Availability

Added in

TDM v1

Available in

Standard, Professional

Specifies if the device will be factory reset upon receipt of a SMS exactly matching a configured message. Only available on devices with telephony hardware.

Warning

Wipe on SMS will only function in environments with cellular connectivity. The device cannot be remotely wiped before it has been first unlocked since its last reboot. After the first unlock, the device will be wipe even if it is locked.

Hint

A factory reset cryptographically erases device encryption keys from disk, clears those keys from memory, reformats the user data partition, and then reboots.
