Norton Launches Android and iOS Security for Mobile Devices

Responding to what it called a “significant uptick” in customers installing mobile security to protect their devices, Norton by Symantec introduced an Android- and iOS-compatible version of its flagship mobile security product. The software’s App Adviser feature deploys proactive protections against malicious apps and other threats and includes a “report card” feature along with integration with Norton Safe Search and Web Protection, said the announcement. Norton Mobile Security (for Android 4.0.3 and later and iOS 8.0 and later) is priced at a first-year $20 discount on the Norton e-commerce site for $9.99.
