VIPRE Mobile for Android
I received the latest VIPRE Security News newsletter the other and found out that VIPRE the anti-virus company for computers is beta testing a version for Android phones. As a user and reseller of VIPRE products, my curiosity peaked and needed to download and try this out. It has only been a couple of days but so far very impressed.
Some the features (straight from the newsletter):
- Antivirus: VIPRE Mobile's powerful Antivirus protects your data and privacy from malicious software that can affect your Android device's normal operation - or worse, steal or destroy personal information.
- Antispam: Spam is not only annoying, it may contain malicious links. Antispam stops texting spam from hitting your phone, blocking by content or by specific phone numbers.
- AppControl™: You may want to show off your phone or maybe a friend needs to make a call. But there are some applications that you just don't want anyone else to run like personal email, or online financial programs. With AppControl, you can control what applications can be run on your Android device with or without permission.
Also, has some features like:
- Remote Locate: Ever want to know where your children are. With VIPRE Mobile you can track their Android phone or device on a map from the VIPRE Mobile website. You can even follow its location, showing you where it's been over a period of time.
- Remote Locate: Ever want to know where your children are. With VIPRE Mobile you can track their Android phone or device on a map from the VIPRE Mobile website. You can even follow its location, showing you where it's been over a period of time.
- Anti-sexting: Block inappropriate texts of a sexual nature from being sent or received. The online world is not always the safest place, keep your children safe.
- Many others like: Remote Alarm, Backup, Monitoring, Anti-bullying and Parental Controls.
I am running this on my droid as we speak without any issues, the cool thing is you set up an account on their website and then tweak and check your phone from there. If interested take a look at www.VipreMobile.com
