MTD solutions strengthen mobile security by preventing, detecting, and remediating sophisticated cyberattacks using advanced techniques. When integrated with a UEM platform, this powerful combination ensures comprehensive security management and robust policy enforcement.
SureMDM seamlessly integrates with Pradeo, a leader in Mobile Security, to provide an MTD solution for securing and managing Android devices.

Threat Vectors that SureMDM MTD Android Solution Covers
Malware
A malware is a malicious software that is intentionally designed by hackers for illegal activities such as eavesdropping or collecting passwords. Cybercriminals use mobile malware to lock devices and demand payment to return the data to users or unlock the device. The SureMDM Mobile Threat Defense solution can scan endpoints to monitor threats coming from all threat vectors, and then proactively remove the threats upon detecting irregular behavior.
Malicious Apps
Malicious apps are fake, unknown or dead apps that are repacked and laced with malicious codes. Users who install applications from third-party app stores may accidentally download malicious apps. SureMDM protects enterprise data by scanning and analyzing installed apps.
Key Features
Proactively monitor the security of critical business applications by initiating continuous scans when devices are online. Choose between basic scan and full device scans to meet different requirements.
With SureMDM, IT administrators can now configure and push Microsoft Defender Antivirus policies on enrolled devices. They can also create compliance policy for MTD and ensure Antivirus is enabled and up-to-date always for Windows devices.
