Mobile Threat Management

Mobile Threat Management manages and prevents all kinds of malware threats to all corporate-owned and employee-owned mobile devices on your enterprise network. It controls and secures the devices, applications, and data, and also protects the data being transmitted, thus boosting the total productivity of enterprise – all from a single console.

Why you need Mobile Threat Management Software?

Companies have so many options now, with cloud services, bring-your-own-device options and more. All of these options can create a more productive, flexible and cost-effective way of working. However, security can be harder to control with all the mobility options companies have, so it is important to find a product you trust, which provides confidence and protection.

At Comodo, our Mobile Threat Management (MTM) software can help. It is a cloud-based solution to security threats and can scan the traffic going to and coming from the devices, protect against attacks and block inappropriate content. All of this can be achieved without affecting the performance of the device or your employees.

Comodo Mobile Threat Management (MTM) Capabilities:

• Comodo Device Manager (CDM) allows administrators to manage and monitor large-scale deployments of corporate and personal mobile devices.
• The deployment, monitoring and support can be done from a single console, and that too within minutes.
• All threats to all mobile devices connected to the enterprise wired and wireless networks are continuously managed through the MTM solution.
• The MTM solution enables rapid response to any threat management requirements
• Easy enforcement of corporate BYOD (bring your own device) policies to employee devices to secure them against threats.
• The facility for over-the-air (OTA) deployment of apps, and security apps (antivirus) - and their updates and patches - allows better device management of security threats.
• To stay protected from threats, administrators can enforce encryption, security policies, complementary applications, and predefined actions to protect devices and data from unauthorized entities.
• The complete corporate database can be secured through "containerization" from other malware that may have infiltrated the device.

What is Mobile Threat Defense (MTD)?

The rise of new technologies is growing leaps and bounds, and it takes some time for the users to accept and understand the need to welcome and adapt the new technology. Mobile Phones are on a popular demand; however, it is equally important for us to realize the rising security challenges associated with the use of mobile phones. Having said that, are we ready with a defence system in hand to deny malicious threats that can cost us more than money. A Mobile Security System has therefore become more critical and is the key for users to stay protected while it takes a while for the users to explore and embrace the new technology. Mobile Security Technology have different names – to name a few – they are Mobile Threat Defense, Mobile Threat Management or Mobile Threat Prevention. Though it comes with different names, it’s all the same in delivering mobile device protection to your devices and the apps in them.

With businesses adapting the BYOD trend – that permits employees to stay connected with their personal devices, it is important to equip with the devices with an effective protective mechanism from an increasingly sophisticated threat landscape. The hackers implement sophisticated threat attacks to compromise the device for a financial gain or to access sensitive personal or financial corporate/personal data.

Some of the effective Mobile Threat Defence Tools implement the integration of detection of abnormal behaviour, intrusion prevention, tools to manage vulnerability are some of the technologies that gives intricate methods to defend against any mobile devices. MTD equips the mobile devices to provide proactive protection against the mobile threats in abundance with extra-added security functionalities.

What does Mobile Threat Defense protect against?

All the mobile security solutions understand the dogma behind every mobile attack. How the threat launches an attack on the device and reason for the attack – if its for a financial gain or to access confidential data from the device.

Mobile Threat Defence solutions offer methods and technologies to scan mobile devices and the applications in them to check if there are any signals and symptoms of any malicious activity, notifying the security teams if any malware strains are identified. A good and effective MTD will not just identify the malware presence but also understands from where the malware connection is established from. By this way it blocks further malicious connection and refrains the malicious files from entering the device.

Some MTDs provide a higher threshold of protection where the user is notified when he/she is directed to a phishing link and there after terminate access to phishing links as soon as the victim user tried to access the phishing website.

MTDs encrypts the traffic when the devices are connected to the Wi-Fi networks. It also scans the data transactions involved through the mobile app real-time to check for any insecure transactions of corporate or personal data. Certainly, an effective MTDs are programmed to terminate the possibilities of Man-in-The-Middle-Attacks.
