Abstract
A method and an apparatus for preventing the loss of an electronic device are provided. The method includes establishing a communication link between a first electronic device and a second electronic device through activation of wireless communication at the first electronic device, collecting, upon detection of movement of the first electronic device, sensing information of the first electronic device, receiving sensing information from the second electronic device through the communication link, comparing the sensing information of the first electronic device with the sensing information of the second electronic device, and checking whether a loss incident has occurred on the basis of the comparison result.
