[KB6380] Enable Anti-Phishing in ESET mobile products for Android

Issue

Solution

What is phishing?

The term phishing describes a criminal activity that uses the manipulation of users to gain access to sensitive data such as bank account numbers, credit card numbers, PINs or usernames, and passwords.

We recommend that you enable Anti-Phishing for maximum protection against potential phishing attacks. After you have installed ESET Mobile Security or ESET Endpoint Security for Android, you must enable accessibility permissions for ESET to enable the full functionality of the Anti-Phishing module for internet browsers (for example, Chrome, Firefox, Opera Mini, DuckDuckGo). The Dolphin Browser is not supported at this time.

Anti-Phishing integrates with the most common web browsers available on Android OS. Other browsers may be listed as Unprotected since they do not provide sufficient integration for Anti-Phishing. We recommend not using unsupported web browsers to fully utilize the Anti-Phishing feature.
