Camera Guard™ from ProtectStar™ makes sure that no hacker or spy can observe you. With just one single click the camera, of your smartphone will be completely protected against Surveillance.

Prevent spying and end unattractive taping
Not only millions of users, but also famous company founders and security experts from the FBI tape over the webcam of their devices.

With good reason: Everything and everybody is spied on! We know this since June 2013 when the first NSA documents were revealed by whistle-blower Snowden. Since then increasingly threatening details are being constantly uncovered.
But not only have hackers found solutions to misuse the webcam without a warning signal to the user.


See nothing – For those who should not.
With only one click the protection is activated and Camera Guard™ blocks and observes all programs and processes that try to access the webcam of your smartphone. Every attempted security breach will be reported with a signal.
To further prevent manipulations, the individual settings of the software can be secured with a pin that is especially secured by a hacker safe protection.

While all accesses and warnings are conveniently protocolled in the log file, the intelligent Deep Detective™ detects even previously unknown attacks.

Deep Detective™: A smart invention against (un)known threats.
With the Deep Detective™ we have created an intelligent and versatile detective that observes all accesses to the Android™ device – similar to a firewall – only smarter.

Deep Detective™ permanently controls which process or app currently attempt to access the camera. Additionally it reports known – and thanks to modern heuristic methods – also unknown attack attempts.
Every possibility to spy on you is proactively restricted from hackers, spies and even trojans that try to use your camera.

An ideal combination
Camera Guard™ can, especially with activated Deep Detective™, be used ideally in combination with other existing security solutions like personal firewalls or any other security app.

In addition with Micro Guard™ - a high-secure microphone protection app - you have a complete and powerful solution against any surveillance.
