Description
McAfee is one of the best known names in PC security software, so it's no surprise that the company would make its way to mobile devices. Enter McAfee Mobile Security. The app, which runs on Android, Blackberry--even Symbian devices--goes a long way in offering users the kind of functionality they would expect from more niche offerings. But is this app worth $29?
Setting up McAfee Mobile Security is fairly easy. After downloading and installing the app to our Droid Bionic, we were asked to enter our device's phone number or, barring that, our email address, as well as a friend's phone number where security alerts could be sent in the event our phone was lost or stolen. We also had to create a six-digit pin for accessing the McAfee Mobile Security app and Web console. We found it slightly annoying that each time we opened the app, we would receive a security warning telling us to enable one of the standard Android screen locks to prevent anyone from accessing our device.
