Equipping your smartphone with adequate security measures is at least as important as for your laptop. F5 exemplifies this with the introduction of the Mobile App Security Suite.

Smartphone security has long taken a backseat to security. For a long time it was taken for granted to install a virus scanner and the like on the laptop, but this rule did not apply to the smartphone. As the mini-computer in your pocket takes on an increasingly important role in working life, companies are beginning to realize that they need to invest in smartphone security as well. F5 responds by introducing the Mobile App Security Suite.

This new mobile security platform for Android and iOS devices aims to protect your smartphone from a variety of security threats. From classic malware that enters your device via downloaded applications to data theft and man-in-the-middle attacks, the Mobile App Security Suite should be able to stop it all. F5 uses bot protection to protect applications on your device from any form of tampering, both during active use and at rest.

The security provider also claims that thanks to the automated deployment process, mobile security is up to three times faster than having to set everything up manually. This guarantees companies “rapid value creation” and “maximum ROI”; F5 already knows the sensitive nerve she needs to hit with corporate leaders.
