Mobile Security incorporates Trend Micro’s anti-malware
technology to effectively detect threats to prevent attackers from
taking advantage of vulnerabilities on mobile devices. Mobile Security is specially
designed to scan for mobile threats and enables you to quarantine
and delete infected files.
|

As technology increases for mobile devices,
the sophistication of mobile threats is also increasing. Trend Micro Mobile Security provides
Web Reputation and Parental Controls to protect your mobile device
from unsafe Web sites and the Web sites that may contain objectionable
material for children, teenagers and other family members. You can
modify your Web Reputation and Parental Controls setting levels
as per your desired settings. Mobile Security also maintains the
log of the Web sites that were blocked by Web Reputation or Parental
Controls in their specific logs.

Mobile devices often receive unwanted messages
or spam through SMS messaging. To filter unwanted SMS messages into
a spam folder, you can specify the phone numbers from which all
SMS messages will be considered spam or you can specify a list of
approved phone numbers and configure Mobile Security to
filter all messages from senders that are not in the approved list.
You can also filter unidentified SMS messages or messages without
sender numbers. Your mobile device will automatically store these
messages to the spam folder in your inbox.

Mobile Security enables
you to filter incoming or outgoing calls from the server. You can
configure Mobile Security to
block incoming calls from certain phone numbers or you can specify
a list of approved phone numbers to which the calls may be made
from the mobile device. Mobile Security also
enables mobile device users to specify their own Blocked or Approved
list to filter unwanted incoming calls.

WAP-Push is a powerful method of delivering
content to mobile devices automatically. To initiate the delivery
of content, special messages called WAP-Push messages are sent to
users. These messages typically contain information about the content
and serve as a method by which users can accept or refuse the content.
Malicious
users have been known to send out inaccurate or uninformative WAP-Push
messages to trick users into accepting content that can include
unwanted applications, system settings, and even malware. Mobile Security lets you use
a list of trusted senders to filter WAP-Push messages and prevent
unwanted content from reaching mobile devices.
The WAP-Push
protection feature is not available on mobile devices without phone
capabilities.

After installing the Mobile Device Agent
a mobile device is associated with a user. The user must type a
password (also known as the power-on password) to log on to the
mobile device.
|

Mobile Security provides
dynamic data encryption for data stored on mobile devices and memory
cards. You can specify the type of data to be encrypted and the
encryption algorithm to use.
|
|||
To protect against the most current threats,
you can either update Mobile Security manually
or configure it to update automatically. To save cost, you can also
set a different update frequency for the mobile devices that are
in
roaming. Updates include component updates and Mobile Security program patch updates. |
|||
Mobile Security includes
the Trend Micro firewall
module, which comes with predefined security levels to filter network
traffic. You can also define your own filtering rules and filter
network traffic from specific IP addresses and on specific ports.
The Intrusion Detection System (IDS) enables you to prevent attempts
to continually send multiple packets to mobile devices. Such attempts
typically constitute a Denial of Service (DoS) attack and can render
your mobile device too busy to accept other connections.
