Are mobile viruses really such a huge threat? - March 11th, 2010

Our mobile devices are crucial to us in our personal lives and business, and mobile viruses can do irreparable harm to any mobile. You could have your entire address book erased or stolen to be used fraudulently, or hackers getting access to your private and very sensitive information. This could be anything from your bank details, personal email and private text messages to removing funds from your bank account. Or a mobile virus can simply shut your mobile phone, your pocket PC, Symbian device or PDA down – basically killing it.

Mobile antivirus and common sense

It makes good sense to keep up to date with mobile virus information; how they disguise themselves and what to be on the lookout for. That however is simply not good enough to keep your mobile devices free from attempts to infiltrate your operating system. Your goal should be to keep all forms of mobile viruses off your devices, as that is the only effective protection. That is exactly what we offer you at UMU Global.

We offer mobile antivirus solutions that have been specifically created for smartphones that run on Windows Mobile. We also have mobile antivirus solutions for Symbian devices that operate with Symbian S60, as well as mobile antivirus solutions for pocket PCs and PDA devices.

It is simply not worth the risk to wait until your mobile devices have become infected, and then to try to save the day. Criminals have no conscience; they do not care if you stand to lose a great deal. The onus rests upon yourself to protect your mobiles with antivirus solutions.
