A processor means is connected with other individual means, and controls those
individual means. Storage means stores data to be processed by the processor means
and the resultant data after the process. An important data in the storage means
is transmitted to other devices for evacuation by using a wireless communication
means, when a situating condition of a portable information-processing device is
judged abnormal (e.g., when being stolen) based on an output of a status detector
means. The data in the storage means is deleted, when the transmission is completed
or the transmission is interrupted. Protection of the data and the confidentiality
are thus achieved even if the portable information-processing device is stolen,
since the data can be evacuated, and the data is erased after completion of the
data evacuation or if the data evacuation becomes not attainable.
