Kaspersky Mobile Security
Advanced security, management and control for smartphones and tablets
Threat Environment
Hackers are unleashing an increasing volume of threats specifically targeting mobile devices. In 2014, the number of attacks against Android devices was 4 times greater than in 2013. While the majority of attacks focused on Android devices, there’s now a growing volume of cyber threats targeting iPhones & iPads. Because iOS devices are so popular, cybercriminals are devoting more effort to compromising their security. Even connecting an iPhone to a Mac – to charge its battery – can result in malicious threats passing from Mac to iPhone.
BYOD Can Add to Your Risks
If we add in the growing adoption of BYOD (bring your own device) initiatives, the security risks are multiplied further. With employees’ own mobile devices now carrying a mix of their own personal apps & data – plus corporate data and access passwords – the likelihood of security breaches has greatly increased. Furthermore, because mobile devices are so small, they’re easily lost or stolen – and missing devices can give unauthorized users direct access to corporate systems and data.
What We Offer
Kaspersky Lab solutions help to keep Android, iOS and Windows Phone devices secure and managed*. Multi-layer protection – including our cloud-assisted technology and Kaspersky Security Network – defend smartphones & tablets against the latest cyber threats, e.g. Trojans, phishing attacks and much more. Kaspersky Mobile Security solution also helps you apply security policies & settings across almost all devices, e.g. Android, iOS, Blackberry, Windows Phone devices. Furthermore, if a mobile device is lost or stolen, anti-theft functions help you prevent access to corporate data. Remotely operated features let you block access to data & apps on the device, wipe data and find the device’s location.
*Not all features are available on every mobile platform.

What it Gives to Your Business
Giving You More Control Over Mobile Security
Flexible control tools add extra layers of security. Application Control helps you to manage which apps are permitted to install and run on the devices that you allow to access your corporate systems and data. Web Control makes it easy for you to manage how users are permitted to access the Web on their mobile devices. Malicious websites are blocked and you can also block sites that don’t conform to your corporate security or usage policies – such as social media, gambling or adult websites.
Secure Containers Add to Post-BYOD Security
Our ‘app wrapping’ containerization technology wraps business apps in special containers on the user’s device. Your apps and data are stored inside the containers – so they’re totally separated from the user’s personal apps and data. You can enforce data encryption for all data inside the containers and you can prevent users copying containerized data and pasting it outside the container. When an employee leaves – taking their BYOD mobile with them – you can delete all containerized apps & data.
