SMobile seems to offer a pretty comprehensive set of security solutions for mobile and handheld devices – from handheld-based security solutions through to network and gateway level protection. Now they’ve announced that their VirusGuard for Blackberry will offer broad protection against the recently-announced vulnerabilities that have been drawing headlines.

While it is certainly good to see things like the recent Spybot S&D Mobile, that look to protect against proof of concept and future threats to Windows Mobile devices, it’s even better to see a solution that is addressing current threats and vulnerabilities.
