Mobile spam such as unwanted marketing messages, phishing scams, and fraudulent activities pose risks, especially to children with unsupervised internet access on their phones. Srusti Mobile aims to address this issue with software that allows customizing phone access and restrictions based on the user, including for personal, child, and business use cases. The software lets parents control what calls, messages, and websites their children can access, and protects users from spam and mobile viruses. It also enables businesses to restrict employee mobile access and activities.
