McAfee Firewall Mobile software provides security for your mobile device. It protects your device from external threats (such as hackers) and internal threats (such as some viruses and worms). Firewall Mobile acts as a filter between your device and the network or Internet. The firewall can scan all traffic arriving at your device (incoming traffic) and all traffic sent by your device (outgoing traffic). It scans traffic at the packet level. As it reviews each arriving or departing packet, the firewall checks its list of rules. A rule is a set of criteria with an associated action. If a packet matches the criteria in a rule, the firewall performs the action specified by the rule — either allowing the packet through the firewall, or blocking it.

Firewall Mobile secures your device using:

  • A firewall that inspects incoming and outgoing network traffic, and either blocks or allows packets based on the security level being used.
  • An activity log that records information about Firewall Mobile actions. You can use this log to review past activities or troubleshoot problems.
