Redmorph announces its foray into Indian market
After its launch in the U.S., Pittsburgh-based Redmorph has forayed into the Indian market with “The Ultimate Privacy and Security Solution”, its comprehensive privacy and security app for Indian smartphone users. As per a study conducted by Zenith, India is poised to have the second-highest number of smartphone users by 2018, in excess of 530 million users, resulting in a mobile-first economy. The proliferation of apps and websites for our everyday needs also enables unknown third-party vendors to track users and steal data weakening personal privacy and security. The Redmorph app offers a unique all-inclusive solution for smartphone users to get proactive control over not just privacy but over security aspects as well.
The Ultimate Privacy and Security Solution allows users to control and protect their privacy and security online. The app also allows users to clearly visualize what is happening in the background behind apps, OS and websites in real time. The product is equipped with algorithms to audit all system and user apps to determine and minimize risks. With behavioural and predictive analysis, it uses contextual logic to identify and block suspicious or malicious apps.
The solution monitors background behaviour and proactively prevents malicious apps from spying on banking, email, social and other critical apps. Equipped with daily tracker and app definitions updates, the app ensures full protection from threatening behaviour from apps on the customer's phone.
India is witnessing an increasing need to improve the existing state of consumer privacy and subsequent security, especially with regards to mobile devices which are susceptible to many security vulnerabilities. The recent Supreme Court verdict stating privacy as a fundamental right stands testimony to government’s efforts to address concerns around privacy and data protection.
Developed from years of R&D by top-flight software engineers and algorithm experts, the app enables the blocking of non-essential background activity, trackers and network connections resulting in significant data usage savings, faster browsing and improved device performance in most devices. Respecting the data privacy of users, the Redmorph doesn’t store any personal information of users. The Ultimate Privacy and Security Solution was recognized by The New York Times as the most effective at blocking trackers and was awarded as a finalist in the 2017 SXSW Innovation Awards.
“The privacy conversation in India is at a pivotal juncture as data has transformed to the status of digital DNA. Consumers today are finding it difficult to make informed decisions, allowing apps multiple permissions to access data due to permission fatigue. This could lead to misuse of user data.” Speaking on the occasion of the launch, Abhay Edlabadkar, Founder & CEO, Redmorph, said, “At Redmorph, we believe that privacy is a precursor to security and are committed to helping people better protect their privacy online.”
Priced at Rs.50 per month with 21 days trial, the app is available on Google Playstore for Android smartphone users. Over the next few months, the company plans to release several new powerful features, and existing users will be automatically upgraded.
