MOBILE PHONE SECURITY
The global adoption of mobile computing has increased the privacy challenges and security risks for businesses and consumers. Mobile devices are sophisticated computers susceptible to viruses, malware attacks and emerging online threats.
Hackers and identity thieves can steal your personal data and disrupt the operation of your mobile phone. Install a mobile security app with anti-virus and malware protection to identify security exploits and thwart malicious activity.
ANTIVIRUS & MALWARE DETECTION
A mobile security app can detect and remove threats such as viruses, malware, Trojan Horse, adware, and spyware. Methods employed include heuristics to counter zero-day threats, for which there is no known malware signature.
