RSA® Mobile Lock Threat detection for mobile devices
Benefits • Detect threats on mobile devices • Establish trust in unmanaged mobile devices • Restrict authentication to protect resources • Prevent threats from spreading during investigations • Accelerate IT team response • Secure mobile device and mobile app • Leave other device functions unaffected
RSA Mobile Lock detects critical threats to a mobile device and restricts the user’s ability to authenticate until the threat issue is resolved. It allows IT to establish trust by verifying mobile devices across the attack surface, systematically protecting against threats, and securing any device to mitigate those threats.
Respond quickly and confidently to threats In the presence of a threat, RSA Mobile Lock supports quick action by alerting the user and preventing them from authenticating into a secured environment and accessing company data, enterprise systems, or customer records. This prevents a threat from expanding beyond one compromised mobile device to reaching all business systems and data, which could have severe cross-company consequences.
Manage both device and app security By only restricting authentication on a user’s device, RSA Mobile Lock: • Identifies a mobile device with a security threat • Makes the user aware of the threat on their mobile device • Alerts IT about the threat • Maintains the security of business systems and data
Minimize the impact on users Rather than locking users out of their own devices, RSA Mobile Lock takes a targeted approach that focuses specifically on the authentication app. While authentication is restricted when a threat is detected, the user can continue to use the device for making calls and other purposes that are unrelated to authenticating to secured resources.
