Kaspersky "Phishing Protection" on the Apple Iphone

[Kevin Leung]

Dear all,

I have installed Kaspersky Standard for iPhone. However, inside the App, i found there are an option called "Phishing Protection", this option is able to be either enable or disable by user.

Can I lock this option, only configure it "enabled" and not allow to "disabled" by phone user?

@Kevin Leung Welcome.

The “Anti-Phishing” protection can be switched to ON or OF , there is no “Lock” option available. Also , when ON and switching e.g. from 4G to WiFi the option remains ON.
