Integ released a new version of VirusBarrier iOS, its malware scanner for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. With its easy-to-use interface and integrated functionality, VirusBarrier iOS makes scanning email attachments quicker and simpler than ever before.
As mobile and portable devices continue to gain popularity, it’s absolutely crucial to ensure that infected files and attachments aren’t getting passed from devices to home computers. VirusBarrier iOS takes security a step further by scanning email attachments to make sure they’re safe to open. Once installed, the app prompts to scan email attachments that the user tries to open. The scanner’s intuitive interface allows users to launch safe files and alerts them whenever suspicious attachments have been discovered.
