Recognized for Balancing ‘Powerful Mobile
Security With Strong User Experience’
Lookout, Inc., the data-centric cloud security company, today
announced it has been named a leader in The Forrester Wave™: Mobile
Threat Defense Solutions, Q3 2024 report. According to the report,
Lookout Mobile Endpoint Security balances powerful mobile security
with user experience to provide a strong set of features across the
spectrum of mobile security and deep threat intelligence to meet
the needs of customers regardless of size or industry.
The report specifically notes, “Reference customers appreciate
[Lookout’s] focus on mobile security as well as machine learning
(ML) capabilities and the vendor’s mobile-centric threat
intelligence.” Also, “Lookout is an excellent fit for customers
concerned about the impact of security on digital mobile user
experiences.”
The Forrester report also recognizes Lookout Mobile Endpoint
Security for its:
- strong set of features across the spectrum of mobile
security;
- deep threat intelligence capabilities;
- ability to meet the needs of customers regardless of size or
industry;
- and customized guidance for end-user remediation.
Lookout achieved the highest score in the secure configuration
management criterion, and received the highest score possible (5
out of 5) in the application integrity, device health inspection,
device impact and user experience, malicious application
prevention, phishing defense, privacy controls, threat intelligence
and vulnerability mitigation criteria.
With more corporate data now residing in the cloud, mobile has
taken center stage as a critical threat vector. In particular,
Lookout is seeing a shift away from traditional malware and
vulnerability-based attacks as an increasing number of bad actors
leverage social engineering, targeting a user’s mobile phone to
steal credentials that provide legitimate access to critical
corporate cloud infrastructure and sensitive data. This shift in
tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) by bad actors is part of
what’s defining the modern kill chain.
In fact, according to Lookout’s recent Mobile Threat Landscape
Report, in the first quarter of 2024, the number of phishing,
malicious, denylisted and offensive links delivered to Lookout
customers’ mobile devices tripled compared to Q1 2023. The Mobile
Threat Landscape Report is based on data derived from the Lookout
Security Cloud’s ever-growing, AI-driven mobile dataset that
analyzes data from more than 220 million devices, 325 million apps
and billions of web items.
“In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, mobile devices
are increasingly being targeted as the entry point for
cyberattacks,” said Jim Dolce, Chief Executive Officer, Lookout.
“Forrester’s Wave report not only validates the critical role
mobile security plays within the enterprise security ecosystem but
also affirms our leadership position in the market.”
