Secure surfing for youngsters
With G DATA Mobile Internet Security, parents now have the confidence that their children are surfing the web safely. The secure browser ensures that children can only visit suitable websites that are considered educationally beneficial and age-appropriate. G DATA allows parents to create black or white lists of web sites.
Protection if the device is lost
Another feature in the G DATA application is protection if the device is lost or stolen. With just a few clicks in the G DATA Action Center, users can determine the location of their iOS device via a web browser. An acoustic signal helps track down a misplaced device – even when it has been set to silent. Additionally, if the iPhone or iPad falls into the wrong hands and the SIM card is changed, the owner receives a message.
