ESET participates in the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona (27 February - 2 March 2017), presenting its recent solutions specifically for business and mobile platforms, its latest research and strategy to follow in accordance with its Privacy Policy of the EU. More information about the company's presence at the conference is available at special page.
ESET's new Threat Intelligence services will be presented at the conference. The services predict and warn businesses about threats in real time, giving them even more flexibility to adapt to a rapidly changing threat landscape. Targeted attacks, advanced APTs, zerodays and botnet attacks are included in the analysis of Threat Intelligence services. In addition, the services are available to security teams of large organizations and operational security centers (Security Operation Centers) to analyze specific types of malware and provide specialized information about mode and their effects.
In ESET's latest research, an important place is the topic of threats on mobile devices and, in particular, ransomware that attacks the Android platform by encrypting files and locking the screen. ESET researchers will present a white paper with the latest data, while ESET's Chief Technology Officer, Juraj Malcho, will make a presentation on this topic at the conference. In a related statement he said "Every year we observe the gradual increase of this threat, generally on all platforms and more specifically on mobile devices. However, users are still not protecting themselves properly, nor are they paying enough attention to responsible online behavior."

Another key point where ESET will focus in Barcelona will be the European Privacy Policy. Findings will be presented by a survey conducted by IDC on behalf of ESET to IT policy makers from various European countries on data protection and the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
"Data security is a key element of the EU regulation that obliges businesses to ensure adequate protection of personal data. ESET solutions and technology are well suited to address the main aspects of these EU requirements, "said Palo Balaj, Head of EMEA Business Development at ESET, who will also be at ESET's pavilion at the conference.
Among other top ESET executives, Ignacio Sbampato, Chief Business Officer, and Miroslav Mikus, EMEA Sales and Marketing Director, will be available for meetings.
For business entrants, ESET CTO Juraj Malcho will present the latest security trends in ESET's specially designed Networking Event on Tuesday 28 February 16.00-18.00 hours at MWC Networking Garden 3 / 5.
