In a move that is the first we've seen any telco in Malaysia do, Maxis is making Norton Mobile Security (which is an antivirus and security app for mobile devices) available to their subscribers and customers. The offer extends to mostly smartphone users willing to pay RM1 a week or RM3 a month for the Maxis Norton Mobile Security app features which include:

  • Anti-Phishing Web Protection
  • Call & Text Blocker
  • Lost Notice (sends message to your lost phone)
  • Remote Lock (locks your phone remotely)
  • Remote Locate (finds your phone remotely)
  • Remote Wipe (erase all your phone data remotely)

Asides from the Maxis Norton Mobile Security app, Maxis also offers Locker, which is a free personal cloud back up service. Those interested in applying for the Maxis Norton Mobile Security app offer can dial *200# and select Maxis Secure or subscribe through SMS by sending ON NMS7 (for 1 week) or ON NMS30 (for 1 month) to 20088. New subscribers for both 1 week or 1 month subscriptions will be offered a 1-month free trial.
