Methods and apparatuses for safeguarding data stored on a digital processing system (DPS) capable of communicating with a communications system are disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention when a DPS establishes communication with a communication system, the identification of the DPS is verified and access is provided to security status information pertaining to the DPS. Based upon the security status information, one or more programs are executed on the DPS. For one embodiment of the invention, one or more memory devices of a digital processing system (DPS) may be provided with an erase means. If the DPS is lost or stolen, the user need only establish a communications link with the DPS and enter the erase code to effect erasure (or modification) of specified stored data.
