Turning off a lost iPhone 6s
My iPhone is lost, and I want to shut down the possibility of others reading my stuff, 'contacts', emails, messages, etc. Can I do that from my Mac Air or from an ipad that has no Sim card?

Check this for putting the device into Lost mode. However, if you have a passcode on the device, others will not be able to read anything on it. Locate a lost or stolen device - Apple Support
