Three Ireland and Corrata partner to protect Irish Businesses in response to increase in cybercrime

21 July, 2020: Three Ireland has launched 3Mobile Protect, the simple to use business mobile security solution that protects mobile devices from phishing and malware and prevents data loss on company smartphones and tablets.

In partnership with award winning cybersecurity company Corrata, Three Ireland are offering this solution exclusively to the Irish market. As we continue to work from home and rely on mobile devices more than ever, 3Mobile Protect is designed with employee’s privacy in mind, ensuring the user’s data and usage is always protected.

With an increasing number of mobile phishing attacks occurring outside of email, the newly launched security tool blocks access to phishing sites, malware download servers, and unapproved content and services.

Ciara O’Reilly, Head of Product, Propositions & Operations at Three Ireland said: “In the rush to get employees set up for home working earlier this year, mobile security may not have been front of mind, however as cybercrime continues to increase, securing employees’ mobile devices has never been more important. Company laptops are generally well protected but mobile is changing all the time, and often employers may not be aware  of the potential risk with mobile. Irish businesses need a simple, cost-effective way to keep employees’ mobiles secure, so we are very happy to partner with Corrata on bringing this solution exclusively to the Irish market. High profile attacks happen every day and 3Mobile Protect will make it very easy for companies to protect themselves and their employees.”

Colm Healy, CEO at Corrata said: “We are delighted to partner with Three Ireland. The increasing prevalence of phishing, malware and network attacks against poorly secured mobile devices pose a serious risk to businesses. Mobile operators have the trust and expertise to identify the best security solutions for their customers. We were particularly impressed by Three Ireland’s clear understanding of the importance of providing their customers with a security solution which is effective, easy to use and respectful of employees privacy.”

3Mobile Protect operates discreetly and locally on the device, with no interruption to device performance and no company data sent to the cloud for inspection, a major privacy advantage for businesses and employees. The software is inexpensive, easily accessible for SME or Corporate users and set up is minimal.

3Mobile Protect is available to both iOS and Android and more information visit: Three.ie/business
