Lookout Inc., an endpoint-to-cloud security company, has announced the availability of Lookout Mobile Endpoint Security, a mobile endpoint detection and response (EDR) offering for managed security service providers (MSSPs).
The offering, it said, “enables MSSPs to deliver a complete turn-key program for identifying risk, protecting sensitive data and securing their customers’ mobile devices. With Lookout’s Mobile EDR, MSSPs can help organizations reduce the risk of a data breach through mobile phishing, ransomware and exploitation of device and app vulnerabilities.”
Lookout said that, according to industry data, less than half of SMBs specifically have any form of mobile security in place. As a result, mobile threats are on the rise year over year. It added that its recent Global State of Mobile Phishing report, 2022 marked the highest percentage of mobile phishing encounter rates ever, with an average of more than 30 per cent of personal and enterprise users exposed to these attacks every quarter.
