A method of remotely treating malicious mobile terminals connected to a mobile communications network. In one embodiment, when a malicious mobile terminal is detected by the intrusion-detection services of the network, the network changes the subscriber profile associated with the mobile terminal to operate the latter in a quarantine mode. The packet-switched subsystem of the network then links the quarantined mobile terminal to a remediation manager. The remediation manager remotely treats the mobile terminal, e.g., to repair or reinstall any corrupted software, terminate any active malicious processes, delete or quarantine any malware, and restore the operating system, configuration, and/or memory of the mobile terminal to a clean operational state. After the treatment, the network reverts the subscriber profile back to the initial state and removes the mobile terminal from the quarantine. |
