Anti-Theft
Kaspersky Mobile Security prevents user data from falling into the wrong hands, regardless of whether a smartphone is lost or stolen.
- SMS-Block: If your smartphone is lost or stolen, you can prevent your personal data from falling into the wrong hands by blocking the smartphone remotely. Simply send an SMS with a predefined code word to the lost device. To unblock the smartphone, a password that only you know needs to be entered.
- SMS-Find: You can locate your phone using SMS Find. Just send an SMS with a password to the lost device and you will receive a link to Google Maps (as soon as a GPS connection is established)* with the exact coordinates. Once you know the whereabouts of your phone, it should be clear if it was stolen or just left somewhere.
- SMS-Clean: If it’s clear that your smartphone has been stolen and there’s no chance of getting it back, you can send an SMS with a predefined code to delete all the data stored on the device.
- SIM Watch: If someone removes the SIM from your smartphone, the device is automatically blocked and if a new SIM is inserted, SIM Watch will immediately send you a message with the phone’s new number.
Encryption
- Select a folder where encrypted files will be stored. Kaspersky Mobile Security will only provide access after a user-defined password is entered.
- The files will remain encrypted even if someone removes the memory card from the smartphone and tries to access its contents on a PC.
- When the password is entered, the folder will remain accessible to enhance usability until KMS detects a period of inactivity
Anti-Spam
- Kaspersky Mobile Security can function in whitelist mode (only accepting calls and messages from specified contacts) or in blacklist mode (accepting calls and messages from all numbers except those in the list).
- After receiving an unwanted call or SMS, the offending number can be added to a blacklist at the touch of a button.
- Unwanted words or phrases can also be added to a blacklist to ensure that specific types of messages are blocked.
Parental control
- When installed on a child’s phone, Kaspersky Mobile Security can block calls or SMSs to undesired numbers (including premium rate numbers).
- The SMS Find function means you can always find out exactly where your child is.*
Cybercrime prevention
- The antivirus component of Kaspersky Mobile Security controls file activity in real time and can perform antivirus scans of the whole device on demand or on schedule.
- The antivirus databases are updated automatically via any accessible Internet connection or during synchronization with a PC.
- The product’s built-in firewall also analyses network connections and closes potential security risks. There are three levels of protection to choose from: low, recommended or maximum.
