Kaspersky Mobile Security Standout Features:
* Anti-Theft Protection to remotely block or delete personal files if your phone is stolen
* Protection from all malicious attacks with realtime antimalware scanning
* Automatic wireless updates
Effectiveness: Excellent
Kaspersky's security solution is complete and effective. Users have access to antivirus protection as well as firewall settings. Furthermore, Kaspersky Mobile Security decreases annoying (and potentially harmful) mobile spam messages.
Kaspersky Mobile Security is constantly working in the background and offers realtime protection for malware. When an infected file is found, you decide whether to delete it immediately, let it pass, or quarantine it. The quarantine area will keep the file intact should you decide to open it later, while eliminating any current threat.
Features: Excellent
With Kaspersky Mobile Security, your internal memory and memory cards can be scanned and will be further protected from viruses. In order to eliminate or decrease spam, users can designate specific sources from which they can either block or accept messages. Phone numbers you don’t trust or have received spam from before can be placed on a blacklist. Place family and friends on a white list and their messages will always come through. You can even designate which types of messages (SMS or MMS) to allow or block for each source.
Kaspersky’s Mobile Security protects your smartphone from physical as well as digital threats. Kaspersky is the only service we reviewed that incorporates anti-theft protection along with antivirus solutions. Whether by accident or direct theft, if your smartphone is not with you, your information is at risk. Kaspersky puts control of your mobile phone at your fingertips, even if your phone is out of your hands. In the event of loss, you are able to send a hidden SMS message that can either block your data or completely remove it from not only your phone, but from the memory card as well.
Another anti-theft feature that Kaspersky includes is the SIM Watch. When a thief removes your SIM card and replaces it with another, the phone automatically sends you the new telephone number (without the thief's knowledge), so you can track down the thief and your phone.
Ease of Use: Excellent
Kaspersky’s Mobile Security is simple and easy to use. The interface is straightforward and easy to navigate. You can easily schedule virus scans for specific times, or perform an on-demand scan whenever you want. Scans and the actions taken are kept and reported in an activity log.
Kaspersky Mobile Security is specifically designed for mobile platforms and doesn’t take up too much space or other resources. Using Kaspersky Mobile Security will not adversely affect the battery life of your device.
Kaspersky Mobile Security is low on resource consumption and requires minimal user intervention as a whole. While you can customize a variety of options and perform scans on-demand, you can also set the program to take care of itself. With automatic updates, realtime protection, and a proper firewall setting, you can set the program and then forget about it. Let Kaspersky do the work for you. You won't need to worry about spending time and effort protecting yourself.
Installation & Updates: Excellent
Mobile Security is easy to install on your computer and then transfer to your mobile device. Kaspersky Mobile Security will work on mobile devices running on the Windows Mobile or Symbian Operating Systems.
Updates with the most current virus protection are delivered to your phone automatically over a wireless connection. This ensures that your phone will be protected as soon as possible and without any extra work for you.
Technical Help/Support: Excellent
Kaspersky’s Mobile Security software is so easy to use, you won’t likely need to search for help. But even if you do need assistance, help is never far away. Kaspersky has telephone, email, and online support.
You can connect with a service representative directly online and get your questions answered in a chat. Connecting with a live person took us a little while, but the quality of service was worth the wait.
The supplied user manual is thorough and is a great resource for users as well as those interested in seeing how the software works and what it can do.
Summary:
Kaspersky Mobile Security is the best portable antivirus solution available. Not only will your mobile device be protected from viruses and worms, but it can take proactive measures if your phone is stolen. With a complete lineup of features and an extremely easy interface, Kaspersky offers the best solution for on-the-go security. With antivirus, antispam, firewall, and anti-theft protection, your smartphone is safe and secure.
