SINGAPORE, June 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — StarHub today launched its Mobile Threat Defence (MTD) solution to address the increasing threat of mobile security breaches encountered by enterprises. The MTD solution, powered by Zimperium MTD’s mobile security platform, uses machine learning to protect mobile devices, apps and data against known and unknown threats.

StarHub’s MTD solution provides enterprises with peace of mind with the following protection:
Unsecure Wi-Fi networks – Protect the device against Rogue Access Points (RAP) and man-in-the-middle (MITMS) to steal data and deliver targeted exploits to compromise the device.Mobile Phishing – Protect against phishing via text/messaging apps that attempts to steal credentials and deliver targeted exploits.Unsafe Apps – Protect against malicious apps that can create fraud, steal information and deliver device exploits.Device attacks – Protect against device being fully compromised such as when a user uses outdated OS versions.

The basic solution, a mobile app, is included as part of the enterprise mobile bundle. It is also available as a value-added service (VAS), allowing StarHub Enterprise Postpaid Mobile subscribers to sign up for real-time device protection at a minimal cost per month.The solution is also available for enterprises as a standalone solution. This features an advanced cloud-native management zConsole to enable administrators to manage policies, monitor threats and mitigate mobile risks.
