SimShield

‘Mobile communication in a secure way’

Mobile phones are increasingly becoming a target for hackers and other malicious people. Research by DDMA, the Dutch industry association of data-driven marketing, shows that 88% of the people interviewed want more control over their personal data, but that more than half think that there is nothing to be done about this. But there is!

To take back control over the data that mobile phones send and receive from the internet Global M has developed the “SimShield – Secure APN as a Service”.

This ‘Secure APN service’ protects personal and business data from the mobile phone by not sending it directly to the internet, but first through a security filter. This filter checks and blocks the data for being send towards:

• Adware
• Phishing
• Tracking
• Malware
• Exploits, and potential unwanted programs
• Fraud
• Spam
• Hijacking, warez and piracy
• Misleading marketing
• illegal pharmacy
