SecurityCoverage Releases Mobile Suite for Android

July 11, 2012 - PRLog -- Cedar Rapids, Iowa – SecurityCoverage, Inc. today announced the release of SecureIT, Password Genie, and FileHopper applications for Android. The Mobile Suite provides antivirus protection, anti-theft features, digital identify and password management, and cloud-based file sharing that users need to protect and maximize their Android smart phones and tablet experiences.

These apps will help protect people in an exploding mobile environment. In 2011, global mobile handset shipments reached 1.6 billion and tablet shipments surged 260 percent to 66.9 million1. Malware developers have taken notice and are creating smarter, more sophisticated attacks in unprecedented numbers. Users need to protect their devices from digital attacks, mitigate the damage of a lost or stolen device, and maintain access to important documents in the event a device is fatally damaged or unrecoverable.

“SecurityCoverage’s Mobile Suite is the natural extension of SecureIT, Password Genie and FileHopper functionality,” said Robert O’Dell, President and CEO of SecurityCoverage, Inc. “As mobile computing becomes a way of life, users cannot ignore the inherent risks. Our apps not only safeguard devices in the event of malicious attack, theft, loss or damage, but they extend the convenience of our products beyond the home or office.”

The mobile suite extends the industry leading functionality of desktop applications SecureIT, Password Genie and FileHopper to Android devices. Users will benefit from a synced, seamless experience between the desktop and mobile applications. Whether paired with their desktop counterparts or stand alone on mobile devices, our mobile suite delivers critical layers of convenience and protection.
