Mobile Endpoint Detect and Respond (EDR)

Threat Actors Are Turning to Mobile as Your Organization’s Weakest Link

Threat actors are increasingly shifting their focus to mobile devices, recognizing them as the most accessible and least protected entry point into the enterprise. With employees using smartphones for everything from multi-factor authentication to accessing sensitive business apps, mobile has become a high-value target. Yet, many organizations still lack the visibility and protections needed to defend against phishing, malicious apps, and device-level exploits—making mobile the weakest link in the security chain.

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is a cybersecurity solution that continuously monitors and analyzes activity on end-user devices to detect, investigate, and respond to threats in real time. While traditional EDR platforms are widely used across enterprise environments, they often overlook mobile devices like iOS and Android—leaving a significant blind spot. Lookout closes this gap with mobile-native EDR, delivering the visibility and protection needed to secure your entire endpoint ecosystem.

Detect suspicious behavior
Mobile EDR monitors for suspicious activity like credential theft attempts, risky app behavior, device compromise, and abnormal communication patterns—threats often missed by traditional EDR tools.
Investigate threats
When a threat is detected on a mobile device, the mobile EDR system gathers essential data—such as app behavior, device status, network activity, and system logs—to assist security teams in investigating the incident and understanding its scope and impact.
Respond to incidents
Mobile EDR can restrict access for compromised devices, block malicious apps, disable risky network connections, or alert security teams for rapid investigation and response.
Record data forensics
Maintains detailed records of mobile device activity—such as app behavior and URL activity—to trace the root cause of an attack and strengthen defenses against future threats.

AI-first mobile EDR tailored to the mobile ecosystem.

Lookout’s mobile EDR solution goes beyond traditional endpoint strategies by addressing the unique architecture, behaviors, and risks of iOS and Android devices. Unlike legacy tools retrofitted for mobile, Lookout delivers real-time threat detection, behavioral analysis, and policy enforcement purpose-built for the mobile ecosystem. It provides deep visibility without invading user privacy, ensuring you can monitor, detect, and respond to mobile threats—whether the device is managed, unmanaged, or BYOD.

Lookout Mobile EDR leverages the world’s largest mobile security dataset to continuously detect and respond to threats across your mobile fleet. By analyzing over 100,000 apps per day and monitoring mobile telemetry in real time, Lookout identifies malware, risky behavior, and phishing attempts as they emerge—delivering seamless protection that scales with your organization.

The Case for Mobile EDR.

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is critical for mobile security because mobile devices have become integral to how people work—and they’re increasingly targeted by attackers. 

Mobile is no longer peripheral—it’s core. Without mobile EDR, your security strategy is incomplete.

The Case for Mobile EDR

Threat actors use phishing (e.g., smishing), malicious apps, and OS vulnerabilities to compromise mobile devices and access sensitive data.
Integrate detailed mobile risk information, device and user audits, and threat event data into your SIEM, SOAR, or XDR platform. 
Mitigate the risk of data compromise due to malware and extensive app permissions.
Safeguard sensitive compliance-related data and implement custom policy-based
protections that keep sensitive data where it needs to be.

EDR

Visualize risk, correlate threats, and respond with mobile EDR.

Protect against the full spectrum of mobile risk, from phishing links and malicious networks to vulnerable operating systems and advanced spyware.

  • Get full visibility into mobile risk, corollary event data, and additional threats by integrating with your SIEM, SOAR, and XDR solutions via Mobile Intelligence APIs
  • Conduct research into the mobile threat landscape and correlate indicators of compromise (IOCs) to proactively track the latest malware and tactics.
