Symantec and McAfee are working hard to beef up their mobile solutions.

McAfee announced solutions to screen mobile content. The news mentions:

“The service, called McAfee OK, works at the provider level and inspects all mobile content such as ring tones, images, video, and even applications that may be uploaded by subscribers onto the network.”

Similarly, Symantec released new mobile security suites. The press release says:

“The suite will include antivirus protection, a personal firewall, anti-SMS spam protection, a password manager, and data-encryption technology.”

This probably gives us an insight into the mobile future. These announcements tells us that going forward, there will be lot of problems with the mobile content. And we thought mobile devices will make our life simpler. Oh boy!
