Kaspersky Anti-Virus Mobile Security: On-access scanning, Antispam
Today, most of us own not only PCs and laptops, but handhelds as well. They provide convenient, portable data storage. But this convenience may come at a price.
The down side is that handhelds are just as subject to virus infections and data theft as PCs and laptops. They also offer viruses entry to home and business networks alike.
Handhelds are designed to carry around; this means that they are also easy to steal and easy to lose. No one appreciates having confidential data on the loose.

Kaspersky Anti-Virus Mobile 7/8.0 is a convenient and reliable solution that protects smartphones from malicious programs that target mobile platforms.
On-demand scanning
You can launch a scan of your mobile at any time. Scanning the memory of a mobile device takes several minutes at most. It is possible to focus scanning on memory cards, individual folders and files. If an infected object is detected, it is stored in the quarantine folder or deleted.
On-access scanning
All incoming or modified SMS, MMS and email items are automatically scanned for malicious programs. The product also monitors executable files arriving via Bluetooth and other connection channels.
On-schedule scanning
You can pre-set the best time for antivirus scanning (for example, at night). Kaspersky Anti-Virus Mobile removes any infected objects and stores suspicious objects in quarantine. You have the option of viewing reports on suspicious objects and making the final decision.
Antispam for SMS/EMS/MMS
Telephone numbers of spam sources can easily be added to a blacklist to ensure that such messages are always blocked. You can also add addresses from your contact list to a safe list.
Fast and discreet
Feel free to make calls, send SMS, read email and share files. Kaspersky Anti-Virus Mobile works discreetly and uses your phone's resources economically. This solution works well, even on slow smartphone models.
Fast scanning
The time required for a complete scan of the smartphone ranges from 1 to 10 minutes, depending on the number, size and structure of files on the device. This is one of the best results on the market.
Uninterrupted operation
By default, when scanning objects on demand or on schedule, the product quarantines dangerous files without stopping the scan or prompting the user for action.
Simple and easy to use
Even the most inexperienced smartphone users will find it easy to manage Kaspersky Anti-Virus Mobile. The user interface is user-friendly and understandable.
Application status control
The icon with Kaspersky Lab logo in the window title bar shows the status of real-time protection like a system tray icon on a PC.
Automatic updates
The Kaspersky Lab Virus Lab constantly updates databases on the server with new virus samples. Antivirus databases on the phone can be updated on schedule (at intervals set by the user). By default, the databases update automatically once a week. Updates are available via WAP / HTTP (GPRS, EDGE, 3G) or via a PC.
