More informations about this product

Description

Norton Smartphone Security protects smartphones (mobile phones that allow Internet activities) from the same types of threats that attack computers, such as viruses, worms, and mobile spyware. SMS antispam protection blocks short text messages from unknown senders. A firewall blocks hackers, intrusions, and denial-of-service attacks.

The application can be downloaded directly to the phone or downloaded to a Windows computer and installed on the phone from there.

Here are some notable features of this product:

  • Product and virus definition updates are delivered wirelessly via LiveUpdate.
  • On-demand scans can check for viruses in individual files, file archives, and applications.
  • Intruders are prevented from turning on the phone's camera.
  • The device is protected against malicious code downloaded from the web, sent via email or a WiFi connection, or beamed via Bluetooth or infrared ports.
  • An activity log shows all recently logged events.

This donation includes a one-year subscription for protection and new feature updates.
