First Claim
Patent Images
1. A terminal for protecting information, comprising:
- an input unit receiving setting data including time data and position data;
a storage unit storing the received setting data;
a position information generating, unit generating a position information of the terminal;
a determination unit comparing the position data with the generated position information to determine whether to limit functions of the terminal at a time specified in the time data; and
a controller controlling to limit at least one function of the terminal according to the determination outcome.

Abstract
A terminal includes: an input unit receiving setting data including time data and position data; a storage unit storing the received setting data; a position information generating unit generating position information of the terminal; a determination unit comparing the position data with the generated position information to determine whether to limit functions of the terminal or not, at a time corresponding to the time data; and a controller controlling to limit at least one function of the terminal according to the determination outcome.
