Get the most out of your Privoro SafeCase with the Privoro App
MITIGATING THE RISKS OF COMPROMISED SMARTPHONES
Spyware can be used to remotely activate your smartphone’s cameras and microphones to capture valuable information shared through conversations and visuals. Privoro’s SafeCase can help prevent your smartphone from becoming a spying device turned against you.
Key benefits:
• Reduce your overall risk exposure
• Rendering meaningless any captured audio means that information shared in free-ranging and unfiltered discussions, including information not available to hackers in any other format, can’t be exploited.
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR CAMERAS AND MICROPHONES
Rather than trusting your smartphone’s operating system or third-party security software to keep bad actors from accessing your cameras and microphones, you have physical control over these components.
GO WITH CONFIDENCE
Whether whiteboarding with a colleague or having a sensitive conversation with a family member, feel confident that you’re not inadvertently feeding valuable information to an adversary, that could, in turn, be used against you or your organization.
SAFECASE TECHNICAL AND OPERATIONAL USE
SafeCase is a smartphone-coupled security device providing unprecedented defense against illicit camera and microphone usage while allowing full use of the phone. These features include:
AUDIO MASKING
To protect both the content and context of conversations, the SafeCase device employs random, independent sound transmissions to each of the smartphone’s microphones.
CAMERA BLOCKING
A physical barrier over each of the smartphone’s cameras prevents intruders from observing or recording any visual data in the device’s vicinity.
GOVERNANCE
In an organizational setting, administrators can define policies around camera and microphone exposure and set alerts and user notifications to ensure you’re maximizing SafeCase protections.
The Privoro App is the companion application that enables communication between SafeCase and the cloud. The app sends telemetry data and log information to Privoro’s cloud-based policy engine to ensure users remain in compliance with established policy around smartphone use across environments and situations.
