Abstract
A mobile communications device may include a near field communications (NFC) device, an input device configured to generate a memory wipe command, a memory, and a memory controller coupled with the NFC device, the input device, and the memory. The memory controller may be configured to receive secure data from a provisioning server and store the secure data into the memory, receive wiping instruction data from the provisioning server and store the wiping instruction data into the memory for wiping the secure data from the memory, and wipe the secure data from the memory without an over-the-air (OTA) connection to the provisioning server based upon the memory wipe command and the wiping instruction data stored in the memory.
