F-Secure unveils 'mobile security'

New Delhi, Nov 15 (UNI) Aiming to provide security against mobile malware threats and intrusion attempts , security software provider F-Secure today launched 'F-Secure Mobile Security', featuring a firewall for devices based on S60 3rd Edition and Symbian OS v9.

''Our product development for mobile security continues apace and introducing a firewall to the product is a logical step that finds its analogy in F-Secure's PC products,'' F-Secure President and CEO Kimmo Alkio said.

Calling firewall feature an important one, Mr Alkio said smartphones too can also be attacked through a Wi-Fi connection and not only by mobile viruses.

F-Secure Mobile Security will be available at the price of 34.95 euro through F-Secure resellers as well as through the leading mobile operators, a company statement said.

The addition of the firewall would now evolve F-Secure Mobile Security to the status of a full security product, it added.
