You can enter a PIN code if desired. The other option is if the device is stolen, contact the carrier and they can suspend the service on the phone. Use a SIM PIN for your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
Generally when phones are stolen, they don't want anything to do with your SIM, it is a way the device can be tracked. They are interested in the device itself.
