1 INTRODUCTION

F-Secure Mobile Security 6

Key features 6

1.1 F-Secure Mobile Security

F-Secure Mobile Security is a software product that protects data stored on your Windows Mobile device against malicious code attacks and protects the device from network intrusion attempts.
F-Secure Mobile Security scans all files for viruses automatically when they are saved, copied, downloaded, synchronized or otherwise modified. All infected files are immediately quarantined to protect all other data on the device. The automatic scanning happens transparently on the background.

To work effectively, antivirus software requires an always up-to-date virus definition database. F-Secure Mobile Security retrieves the latest virus definition databases automatically.

1.2 Key features

F-Secure Mobile Security offers the following key features.

Transparent Operation

The application runs in the background while you use your device.

Extensive Scanning

The application scans all files when they are accessed. You can also manually scan your device for viruses whenever you want.

Automatic Updates

The application downloads regular updates to keep the virus definition database up-to-date automatically.

Firewall

The application protects you from potential network harm by blocking connections that do not meet the set security criteria.

Anti-theft

You can remotely lock your mobile device or wipe the data stored on the device if it is stolen.

To shut down F-Secure Mobile Security completely, select Exit from the menu on the main view.

IMPORTANT: If you shut down the application, infected files are no longer quarantined and the system is not protected against viruses. Shutting down the application disables the firewall.

3.2 Scanning for Viruses

The application scans all accessed and modified data on your device automatically for malicious content when the real-time scanning is enabled. If you do not want to use the real-time scanning, you can manually scan all the data for viruses whenever you want.

5. Leave the check box unchecked to disable the real-time scan. Files are not scanned automatically. You should manually scan your device each time you transfer any new data to it. For more information, see "Manual Scanning", 16.

4. Tap ok.

Real-time Scanning

The real-time scan scans files for malicious content automatically when they are accessed or modified and when they are copied to the device.

Virus Alerts

When F-Secure Mobile Security detects a virus during a real-time scan, the virus is quarantined and added to the Infections list immediately.

F-Secure Mobile Security alerts you about viruses detected during the real-time scan. Tap the infected file to view details about the infection. For more information, see "Processing Infected Files", 16.

Manual Scanning

To scan all files on your device and the inserted memory card, follow these instructions:

1. Tap Virus protection in the main view.
2. Tap Scan now.
3. After the virus scan is finished, the application displays the following information:

Infected

The number of infections found. For more information about removing infected files, see "Processing Infected Files", 16

Not Scanned

The number of the files that were not scanned during the scan. A file cannot be scanned if another program has locked it or if the file is corrupted.

Scanned

The number of the files that were scanned.

1. Tap ok to exit the scan. All infected files are quarantined and cannot be accessed when F-Secure Mobile Security is running in the background.

3.2.2 Processing Infected Files

6. Release - release the quarantined file. If you release a file, it will not be locked any more. You access it at your own risk.

You can find in-depth virus descriptions in the F-Secure web site: http://www.f-secure.com/virus-info/.

3.3 Using Firewall

The firewall in F-Secure Mobile Security works quietly in the background. It monitors incoming and outgoing Internet and network information, and protects you from intrusion attempts.

By default, the firewall protection level is set to Normal. This level gives you good protection and does not affect using the most common applications.

3.3.1 Selecting the Protection Level

To select the security level:

1. Tap Settings in the main view.
2. Tap Firewall in the settings selection list.
3. Select the firewall level you want to use.

The firewall has the following protection levels:

Level	Description	Protection
Deny All	Stops all network traffic. You cannot use your e-mail, MMS or web services.	Total protection
High	Allows most commonly used applications.	High protection
Normal	Allows all outgoing connections. Recommended level.	Good protection
Allow All	Allows all network traffic. Does not stop any incoming or outgoing connections.	No protection

3.4 Protecting Confidential Information

With Anti-theft, you can make sure that your device or data stored on it is not misused if your device is stolen and Anti-theft can alert you if somebody changes the SIM card in your device.

3.4.1 Using the Remote Anti-theft

With the remote lock, you can lock the device remotely by sending it an SMS message you have created. The locked device can be unlocked only with the lock code of your device. To use the remote lock, keep the device lock turned on.

With the remote wipe, you can wipe the device remotely by sending it an SMS message you have created. When the device is wiped, the application deletes all the information stored in the device memory.

As memory cards can be easily removed, store your confidential information in the device memory.

To set up remote lock and wipe:

1. Tap Settings in the main view.
2. Tap Anti-theft in the settings selection list.
3. Select which features you want to turn on:

3.5 Keeping F-Secure Mobile Security Up-To-Date

F-Secure Mobile Security includes an automatic update service, which means that the virus definition database in the application is updated regularly. Only an up-to-date virus definition database protects your device against the latest viruses.

The application requires an active Internet connection for the updates. When a connection to the Internet is available, the application checks when the virus definition database was last updated and downloads new updates if necessary.

You can freely update F-Secure Mobile Security as long as you have an active subscription. To keep your device continuously protected, purchase additional service time well before the expiration date.

5. Never—the virus definitions are not updated automatically. We do not recommend that you disable automatic updates.

Manual Updates

1. Tap Virus protection in the main view.
2. Tap Update now.
3. The application requires a network connection. Tap Yes when the connection the update server is needed.
