How does security and encryption defeat someone just booting into recovery?

Regardless of device encryption and fingerprint scanners and the like, couldn't someone just get your phone, boot into recovery, and factory reset it? Wouldn't that undo any security you had on device?

If anyone wants to test this that has an xt1526 sprint version, here it is:

To my understanding, this would work because this phone has a gsm radio, it just doesn't have the proper bands to operate on other carriers. And yes, I have the spc/msl code, in case anybody is wondering. (For the xt1526 sprint version).

Can someone please test skvalex's call recorder?

I'm very interested in grabbing this phone but I heard that LG devices sometimes have issues with this application. Can someone test Skvalex's Call Recorder for me before I buy it?

Trial of app is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...2&d=1443730003

If you can test recording both incoming and outgoing that'd be awesome. I greatly appreciate the help!
