准备离职？当心你的手机数据 Leaving A Job? Better Watch Your Cellphone In early October, Michael Irvin stood up to leave a New York City restaurant when he glanced at his iPhone and noticed it was powering off. When he turned it back on again, all of his information -- email programs, contacts, family photos, apps and music he had downloaded -- had vanished. 月初的一天，当独立医疗顾问迈克尔·欧文(Michael Irvin)起身准备离开纽约一家餐馆时，他瞥了一眼自己的iPhone，发现iPhone正在关机。当他重新开机时，包括email程序、联系人、家庭照片、手机应用和他下载的音乐在内的所有信息都不见了。 The phone looked like it came straight from the factory, said Mr. Irvin, an independent health-care consultant. 欧文说，手机看上去“和直接出厂时一样”。 It wasnt a malfunction.

He provided a copy of AlphaCares BYOD policy, effective as of July, which includes a reference to remote wiping. Mr. Irvin said he was never given a copy of the policy. AlphaCare的董事长乔尔·兰多(Joel Landau)拒绝确认是否清除了欧文的手机信息。他提供了一
