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, archived documents, emails, network files, and drives at regular intervals. Choose between quick, full device, custom folder, and Microsoft Defender offline scans to meet different requirements.
