Security specialist Symantec Corp. Wednesday announced an agreement with the world’s largest cell phone maker, Nokia, to pre-load its Series 60-based smart phones with its Mobile Security software.

 

The software is customized for the open-source Symbian mobile device operating system, which runs Nokia’s standard applications on the Series 60 phones. The announcement follows a partnership of more than two years between the two companies, in which Symantec, based in Cupertino, Calif., supplied security software for Nokia’s Communicator product line.

 

Nokia has four pages’ worth of specifications describing its own security-related software posted on its Web site. Nonetheless, it decided to outsource security for its newest smart phones.
