It also enables mobile operators to provide value-added security services to their subscribers.

“The number of people using data-centric devices and Smartphones continues to grow, and, as a result, so does the potential security threat to users,” said Justin Doo, managing director, Trend Micro Middle East and Africa. “The network boundary has shifted, and organizations and operators now need to consider extending security measures to protect user devices. Trend Micro is focused on providing such additional network-wide protection as threats evolve and diversify.”

These systems include Windows Mobile 2003/2003SE for Smartphone, Windows Mobile 2003/2003SE for Pocket PC and PocketPC Phone Edition, Symbian OS 7.0 with UIQ 2.0/2.1 , Symbian OS v7.0s/v8.0a/v8.1a with Series 60 User Interface and now Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0.
