Kaspersky Mobile Security

Kaspersky Lab announced a new product for Mobile Security. As people continue to load more and more sensitive professional and personal data on their smartphones, more advanced security capabilities are becoming increasingly important for consumers and businesses alike. With <A HREF="http://usa.kaspersky.com/about-us/news-press-releases.php?smnr_id=900000125">Kaspersky Mobile Security,</A> in addition to packing standard anti-malware capabilities, if you lose your phone, you will have the ability to send an SMS message that either temporarily locks the device until it is recovered, or wipes it clean of any stored data. This eliminates the risk of personal information falling into the wrong hands if it has been stolen (or simply left in the backseat of a cab).

In addition, the product has anti-theft capabilities: If your phone is stolen, it can be programmed to make an outgoing call to the number of your choice the second the thief inserts a new SIM card--making it much easier to track down the location of the phone.
