Abstract
A method, apparatus, and computer readable storage medium are disclosed to control a mobile device. A disable event module detects a failure to respond to a communication. The communication is sent to a mobile communications device from a supervisory source. A function disable module disables one or more functions of the mobile communications device in response to detecting the failure to respond to the communication. An enable event module detects a second communication between the mobile communications device and the supervisory source. A function enable module enables the one or more functions in response to detecting the second communication.
