Looking For A Free Anti-Theft App For Android? It’s Here

by CIO AXIS

Kaspersky Lab presents a new free Android app, a tool which enables users to protect the things that are valuable to them – their mobile devices and personal data. Phound! – derived from the words Phone and Hound – helps to find a lost gadget quickly and keep any valuable information stored on it away from prying eyes.

Phound! offers gadget owners the ability to control their devices and the data stored on them remotely, via the My Kaspersky portal. If a device is lost or stolen, users can quickly block it to prevent unauthorized access, as well as using GPS, GSM or Wi-Fi networks to find its position on the map. To make searching for the device easier, users can also take pictures with the front camera or bring up a message on the device’s screen.

If the telephone or tablet was lost at home or in the office, it can be found with the help of the Alarm feature – the device makes a loud sound and continues until the owner enters a secret code. As a last resort, the owner can use Phound! to remove all personal data from the device and the SD card remotely, including contacts, messages, photos etc., as well as perform a hard reset of the device, if required.

Kaspersky Phound! is now available in 8 languages from Google Play Store, the official app store for Android. This app complements the Kaspersky Lab portfolio of free and freemium mobile products for home users, which includes Kaspersky Safe Browser for iOS and Windows Phone, Kaspersky QR Scan, Kaspersky Threat Scan, Kaspersky Internet Security for Android and Kaspersky Password Manager for iOS and Android.
