SMobile's patent-pending VirusGuard for BlackBerry stops mobile threats at the handset - so users can continue to use the full functionality of their BlackBerry devices, while enjoying complete protection from malicious intrusions. VirusGuard is currently the only anti-virus solution for BlackBerry available on the market, and was the only solution that offered immediate protection against vulnerabilities exposed by the BBProxy security tools released to the public last month.
"Whether the threat is big or small, old or new, we believe that everyone should be prepared to protect their mobile devices - and we're here to help them do it," said Neil Book, President of SMobile Systems. "Anyone at CTIA with a BlackBerry can instantly convert their traditional, unprotected mobile device into a secure mobile or 'smobile' device, just by stopping by our booth for a completely free installation of our industry proven anti-virus solution."
In addition to BlackBerry, SMobile's solutions support the broadest range of mobile devices and platforms on the market, including Symbian, Windows Mobile, and Palm OS. For more information, visit SMobile in booth 1202, or www.smobilesystems.com.
NOTE TO THE MEDIA: SMobile will also be providing members of the press at CTIA with free BlackBerry anti-virus installations at its booth (#1202), and at the MobileFocus media event on September 12 at the Westin Bonaventure hotel from 7:00 to 10:00 PM. Simply stop by with your BlackBerry. To schedule a briefing with the SMobile team in advance, contact Ilana Zalika at [email protected] or 732-266-5219.
