Protecting the FOMA Terminal from Harmful
Data
<Scanning function>
First, update the pattern data to the latest pattern data.
Delete harmful data and prevent harmful applications from launching by scanning and detecting problems
in files imported to the FOMA terminal, such as those downloaded from a website or i-mode mail.
z
Data on harmful patterns is used for checking files on the FOMA terminal. The pattern data is modified every
time a new problem is found. Update the pattern data.
→ p.472
z
The Scanning function prevents the data that causes some fault from invading your FOMA terminal when
viewing sites and websites or receiving mail. If pattern data for a failure is not downloaded to the FOMA
terminal, or if pattern data for a certain failure does not exist, it may be impossible to delete the harmful data
using this function.
z
The pattern data is specific to a certain model of FOMA terminal. Therefore, DOCOMO may stop distributing
pattern data for a model 3 years after the model is first released.
z
Set the date (year, month and day) of your FOMA terminal correctly.
z
When the pattern data is updated, the unique information (model, serial number, etc.) on your FOMA
terminal is automatically transmitted to our server (the server that our company manages for the scanning
function). We do not use the transmitted information for any purposes other than scanning function.
z
The pattern data update is interrupted during reception of a call or while out of the service area.
Setting the scanning function
<Set scan>
When the Scanning function is set to “ON”, data and programs are automatically checked when they
are executed.
When the message scan is set to “ON”, the main text of SMS is automatically checked.
