Abstract
A method of enhancing travel security features associated with a mobile device is provided. The method may include operating a time clock to store a start device confiscation time in a memory and to store an end device confiscation time in the memory, monitoring the mobile device to detect tampering occurring between the start device confiscation time and the end device confiscation time, and in response to the detecting of tampering, prompting the user for a secure identifier. Upon receipt of the secure identifier, the method may include opening a secure i/o pathway to a re-image file. The secure i/o pathway preferably enables execution of an executable re-image file. The re-image file may be used to re-image a software image of the mobile device. The re-image file may contain a pre-tampered image of the mobile device.
