Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

My password protected phone was stolen and hacked into. How can I prevent someone like this from hacking into/getting around the passcode? They now have access to everything on my phone (I had a passcode to prevent this)

How can you prevent a hacker from bypassing your iphone passcode? My phone was stolen and someone hacked in and has access to everything on my phone and turned off "find my iphone." This is exactly what I wanted to prevent from happening and the reason why I had a passcode.

iPhone 5s, iOS 7.1
