Enhanced security in Qiku handsets
Print Edition
NEW York-listed Qihoo 360 yesterday launched three new smartphones that come with enhanced security features, nine months after it said it would invest US$400 million to set up a joint venture with Coolpad to produce Qiku phones.
The Qiku phones, priced between 1,199 yuan (US$187) and 3,599 yuan, feature enhanced security features to prevent junk calls, spam messages, online fraud and privacy leakage.
“We are worried about the mobile security challenges. Finally, we find we have to make our own phones to fix the loopholes 100 percent,” said Zhou Hongyi, chief executive of Qihoo 360.
The new Qiku phones are also able to offer enhanced protection of finance-related applications, “privacy space” for photos and WeChat messages and hardware-level encryption technologies, Zhou added.
The Qiku phones will start selling next Tuesday, a week before Apple is set to release its next iPhone.
The new phones from Qihoo 360, the country’s biggest Internet security firm, mark a move for Chinese dot-com firms like Letv and Alibaba to expand into mobile communications.
