Internet security for tablets/mobiles

[Deleted User]

Currently have Kaspersky IS on my laptop, can someone please tell me if I can/should also install an IS on my windows phone and android tablet? I don't know if it's the same application as the one on PC's or if Kaspersky have a specific one for tablets. I went to Currys for some advise, and they tried to palm me off with Mcaffee. Any advise from you guys, would be much appreciated.

I use lookout on my phone. But only because i like the phone tracking and able to disable/lock it remotely.

Otherwise no i wouldnt bother. Do you intentionally put dodgy files/apps etc on your phone/tablet?

I wouldnt touch McAfee on any device.

I wasn't thinking of me putting any dodgy files, more of someone else hacking in

Do you use unprotected wifi networks when you do your banking etc?

More likely for someone to steal it and find your data.

Have Kaspersky on android tablet as Barclays give you a free licence with their internet banking. It is an android/mobile device specific version, which it has to be as threats are different.
