Active Shield Enterprise

About Active Shield Enterprise Android App

BETTER provides Android users with comprehensive real-time threat detection, providing the user with the information to keep their devices safe from attacks form anyone and anywhere.

BETTER’s Active Shield provides enterprises with a mobile security solution that allows the user to identify and remedy any threat to their Android device. With BETTER’s Active Shield, you can use your Android device to access sensitive and private information without having to fear that the network, device or apps have been compromised. BETTER provides you with a complete security solution for Android that ensures the device, and all apps on it, are secured against mobile threats, including network attacks and attacks on the device or applications.

Organizations are rapidly embracing the usage of mobile devices in their business processes. While mobile devices increase productivity, they also create new avenues for security and privacy threats. Attacks can come from anywhere and attempt to access your data from a variety of entry points. Attacks on the network, applications, or device can lead to leakage of sensitive information and provide access to internal corporate data and employee credentials.

By installing BETTER’s Active Shield you will be alerted when:
• You connect to a rogue network
• You attempt to install a repackaged or malicious app
• The integrity of your device is compromised

In addition to this, an enterprise version of BETTER’s Active Shield offers:
•  Real-time threat prevention, on top of the real-time detection provided in the free version, against all types of mobile threats, known and unknown
• Complete visibility for system administrators
• Enterprise integrations with EMM and MDM vendors

Privacy

In addition to standard permissions required to ensure your mobile device is secured at all times, Active Shield also requests the following permissions

1. Location - to report the location to your administrator when a threat occurs on the device.
2. Wake Lock- the ability to prevent your device from sleeping to execute detections in the background
3. Device administration permission (`android.permission.BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN`) - This app uses the Device Administrator permission. This permission allows your enterprise to encrypt your device storage. This behavior is controlled by your enterprise administrators.
4. Boot completion - This allows the app to start scanning and protecting your device upon reboot.
