Between me, my husband and our three kids, we have A LOT of devices. Between the 5 of us, there are 7 devices and it takes a lot of time and work to make sure that those devices are safe and without issues. With so much talk about phishing, viruses and lost devices, I knew it was time to get something that would help us keep all these devices safe.
What I found was an app called ESET Mobility Security. What I love about ESET is it does so much in one little app (I hate having to download so many apps when just one can do it all!). ESET’s Antivirus technology scans files, websites & emails 24/7 so you can explore the web in confidence knowing that you are protected. Anytime you or your child downloads an app, ESET scans the new app and organizes it with Apps Audit to show permission levels and what information on your phone or tablet they can access. That means never downloading an app with a virus or downloading an app that can view way too much info on your phone or tablet.
I’m sure everyone has gotten at least one email that looks like it’s from a big, well-known company but isn’t actually from them at all. I’ve gotten a lot from a bank that I don’t even use but imagine I did and didn’t know better NOT to input my password, account number, credit card number or more into the email or their phony website? It would be very bad news for my family & our finances. ESET has Anti-Phishing capabilities that blocks bad links thereby shielding your identity and personal data against theft, keeping you & your family safe.
Think about everything you do on your phone or tablet…pay bills, log into your bank account, download personal files and so much more. This is all information that you don’t want to give out to anyone else but without protection on your device, could very easily fall into the wrong hands. If your device is ever lost or stolen ESET has a set of anti-theft tools that make sure your info stays safe and you’ll even have a chance of recovering your device by enabling it to email you notifications, letting you know what it’s current location is so you can track it, sounding an alarm or even completely erasing the contents remotely.
ESET Mobility Security has been given the PTPA (Parent Tested Parent Approved) stamp of approval and that’s a big deal for me because I want to know that I can trust an app that’s going to keep me and my family (and our personal information) safe! Right now, ESET is giving you guys a GREAT deal! Head on over to check out all that ESET has to offer and buy the ESET Mobility Security for $4.95! That’s a 75% savings! By the way, you can use this on up to 5 devices on the same Google Play Account so it’s a fantastic value!

I don’t use my smartphone to access the internet very often. Would love to try ESET!
I don’t usually use my phone to get on the internet
Unfortunately, I don’t yet own a smartphone — so that is not an issue for me. 🙁
I don’t use my phone to access protected information.
I avoid certain sites and I never give out my personal information ever.
I don’t have a cell phone but I have BitDefender Anti-Virus, SuperAntiSpyware Pro and manual scans with MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, Spybot Search & Destroy and Emsisoft Anti-Malware.
Right now I don’t own a smartphone but getting ready to buy an LG Volt Android soon..my son owns an LG G2 & he has insurance that covers it.
I never thought about having to be safe while using my smartphone. I never give out personal information (unless it is on a secure site). I also make sure to stay away from sites that I know are harmful.
I only use sites that I know are safe, and I never open email from people I don’t know. I also don’t do any banking or purchasing on my phone.
I don’t download a lot of stuff.
I currently do not own a smart phone.
I use a lock on my phone
I lock my phone and I log out of each site after every use.
I don’t have a smartphone (yet) so I don’t have to worry about keeping my information safe and secure. Thanks for the giveaway!
I always have my phone locked and I never use “free wi-fi”.
I always have my phone locked.I use anti malware and am choosy with permission requests.
Anti virus
I don’t access that type of information on my smartphone nor do I have information on my phone that is personal.
I follow the same rules that I follow on my laptop. I don’t click on unknown attachments or emails, etc.
I don’t use my phone to access secure information.
I don’t use my phone to access secure information on the web. I wait to use my home computer which has anti-virus software installed.
I install a basic software that’s free, but I haven’t on my new phone yet. Good reminder!
I try to avoid going to any questionable sites, and I don’t give out my personal info unless I am positive it’s verified and secure.
I unfortunately don’t have one, but would love to.
I have not protected my phone but really should
I always lock my phone and never click on any questionable emails or links.
We have installed a software program on all our phones to protect us. I’m not sure it is as good as this though. It’s still something I worry about.
Well, I have a BB10 phone (the Z10 to be exact), and I use the picture password on top of a digit password (if my son tries to play with my phone). My stuff stays pretty secure, and times out within a minute to have my password up so I’m not really worried. I quick remote swipe through BlackBerry Protect is pretty good for me.
just don’t use a smartphone.
I never thought about having to be safe while using my smartphone
I haven’t really been concerned as I don’t enter private info like credit or banking info on my smartphone although someone recently tried to get onto my Facebook. Don’t know what they could have wanted there.
I make sure all my bank accounts are always empty! 😉
Seriously, I should probably be more careful.
Honestly I don’t do anything to protect it! 🙁
I don’t own a smartphone at this time.
I keep a password on my phone and I’m careful which sites I visit. I don’t click links that I do not know are safe.
i have a pin code.
I don’t do any banking on my phone…don’t give out any personal info.
I don’t use my phone for anything that is important.
I use a lock on it!
I use its online protection services but I always worry that it isnt enough
Sadly I do not use anything and therefore need this! I didn’t know they made such things.
I do not give out my information over my phone.
I don’t have a smartphone. If I did I would rarely visit the internet, though I would still want protection because e-mails (which I would probably use it for) can sometimes be risky too.
i do use my smart phone to access my bank accounts and stuff but i really don’t do anything special for security.
Don’t own a smartphone and don’t plan on getting one..
I keep mine safe with a password.
I don’t have a smart phone =(
