Mobile Defender - Designed to protect your hand-held device from malicious use. It supports
all Windows Mobile 5 and 6 powered mobile devices. In case of lost or
stolen, send an SMS with pre-defined content and Mobile Defender will
wipe out all user information. You choose what part of the mobile
system is important for you: Personal Contacts stored on SIM card or
Appointments or files and directories on SD Card or device's non
volatile memory. Even you can completely shutdown the system so no one
can use it.
Mobile Defender will automatically find all non
volatile memory (Secure Digital, Multimedia Cards, Permanent File
Stores etc) so they can be cleaned up from sencitive data. There is
option to Make Device Unusable. If used, only factory default reset can
bring it into working state. Sometimes to preform this can be very
tricky process involving in most cases contact with device's
manufacturer and possessing a prove of purchase.
Mobile
Defender works as transparent and silent gateway hidden into device's
operating memory. It cannot be terminated with Windows Mobile Task
Manager - it is just not visible there. All SMS messages are scanned
for special pre-defined text. If this criteria is not found in the
message body, message will be passed to the user as normal SMS.
Otherwise following list of actions will be executed depending of
settings chosen:
* All non volatile file system will be secure erased. * Special kind of reset will occur bringing device to unusable state. * SIM card contacts and SMS history will be erased (version 1.2 on) * SIM card SMS storage will be erased (version 1.2 on)
The application itself consist of two components: User Interface Module and hidden module.
The user interface allows user to set preferences and options and/or
start/stop/restart the hidden module. Same module will also be used for
product registration. See registration section below.
The
hidden module will intercepts all incoming SMS looking for criteria
(word) that is also case sensitive. Once started it will be resident in
device's memory even if hot (soft) reset is initiated.
Since version 1.2, this product support VGA display devices, Square display.
