Your Android™ smartphone or tablet can carry a lot of personal information and may be vulnerable to cyber threats. Norton Mobile Security helps deliver powerful, effective protection for your Android device and personal information against stealthy new mobile cyber threats and online scams.
App Advisor+ proactively helps protect your smartphone against mobile threats like malware, ransomware, adware, and privacy leaks using our award-winning2, patent-protected app scanning technology.
Wi-Fi Security helps detect and alert you when a network you join is dangerous or under attack to help protect your personal and financial information.
Web Protection helps detect and safeguard you from navigation to fraudulent and malicious websites when using your preferred browser, app, SMS, MMS, Email, and social networking sites.
Device Security gives you several tools to help recover your lost or stolen device. We also let you know when your operating system has vulnerabilities, so you can take action to help protect your device against cybercriminals that could take control of it or steal your personal information.
Do you know what your Android apps are doing? We can help show you.
Free apps are good at telling you what benefits they provide, but they may not tell you their real “costs.” App Advisor+ (powered by Norton Mobile Insight), when turned on, automatically lets you know about malware, online privacy and other risks that are detected before you download from Google Play™ to help you make informed app decisions — and whether that free app is worth the final cost.
Worried about your Wi-Fi and Web security? Check this out.
To help protect your personal and financial information from cyber threats, our Wi-Fi Security feature uses advanced scanning technology to help detect and alert you before you join a dangerous network or one that is under attack. This helps you stop unwanted eavesdropping on your Wi-Fi connection and makes it harder for cybercriminals to steal personal information or passwords, infect your device with malware, or use your internet connection to perform illegal activities.
Our Web Protection feature helps detect fraudulent and malicious websites when using your browser, app, SMS, MMS, email, and social networking sites to help safeguard your activity and personal information.
Protection you can trust from a STAR in cyber security.
Norton Mobile Security is powered by our cyber intelligence network system developed by Symantec’s Security Technology and Response (STAR) Team. This includes Norton Mobile Insight, our proprietary app analysis system that includes crawling the app stores, analyzing running apps and using machine learning to understand Android app behaviors. Our engineering team strives to bring our valued members additional device, network and information protection in this increasingly unsafe cyber world.
