In our previous blog, we talked about what happens when Google security updates stop, and why that moment is easier to underestimate than most people think. But understanding the risk is only the starting point. The real question is: what is actually being done about it?
Your devices are running. The screen in the meeting room shows the right schedule. The display in the lobby is doing its job. Everything looks fine, so there is nothing to worry about, right? Not quite. Because while your devices are quietly doing their job, the question is whether their security is doing the same. And that is not something you can always see on a screen. Here is how ProDVX makes sure the answer is always yes.
Most people assume a device is secure as long as it is working normally. But security does not start with an app or a setting. It starts the moment the device turns on.
With the A26 firmware update, ProDVX introduced Android Verified Boot. Every time a device with A26 firmware boots up, it runs an automatic self-check before anything else happens. It verifies that the software on the device is exactly what it should be, untouched and unmodified. If something has been altered or tampered with, the device catches it immediately.
On top of that, devices running A26 firmware only accept officially signed ProDVX firmware. That means no unauthorised software can be installed, and what runs on your device is always exactly what ProDVX intended. This also helps ProDVX meet European regulatory requirements (the RED directive) for connected device security, so you do not have to worry about compliance on that front either.
Devices in professional environments run for years. And that creates a gap that is easy to overlook: what happens to security when manufacturer support stops?
As we explained in our previous blog, Google security support ends at a fixed point. Once it does, newly discovered vulnerabilities go unpatched. ProSECURE fills that gap by extending security support by three years beyond Google's official security support. Your devices keep receiving updates, so you always know where you stand.
For anyone responsible for a hardware budget, this also means devices that stay secure for longer do not need to be replaced prematurely. That protects your investment and removes a recurring cycle of unnecessary costs.
A network is only as secure as the devices connected to it.
Every device that joins your network is a potential entry point. That means network security does not stop at the firewall, it starts with making sure that every device on the network actually belongs there. IEEE 802.1X authentication does exactly that. It requires every device to identify itself before it is granted access, both over wired and Wi-Fi connections. Only approved devices get in. For IT teams, this means ProDVX devices fit into existing security policies without extra configuration or exceptions.
What makes this especially relevant for wired connections: 802.1X on LAN is still far from standard in most deployments. Most organisations lock down their Wi-Fi, but treat the wired network as inherently trusted. It is not. ProDVX supports 802.1X on both, which means the same level of access control applies whether a device is plugged in or connected wirelessly.
On top of that, every device ships with ADB over TCP disabled by default. This remote access tool is useful during development, but leaving it active on a deployed device creates an unnecessary opening. ProDVX closes that door before the device even reaches you.
Managing a handful of devices is one thing. Managing dozens or hundreds across multiple locations is another. As deployments grow, so does the complexity, and the risk of things slipping through the cracks.
ProMGR, ProDVX's device management tool, is built into every Android device as standard. That means you can enforce the right device security policies across your entire fleet from day one. It also lets you lock devices into exactly the mode they are supposed to run in, whether that is a single app, a controlled browser environment, or a curated launcher. You can lock I/O and configure everything from a single place.
Security on deployed devices rarely gets attention until something goes wrong. By then, the cost in downtime, disruption, or unplanned replacements is already real.
ProDVX builds security into every layer, from the first boot to years into the device's working life. You get devices that check their own integrity every time they start, continuous monitoring and patching that outlasts the standard support window, network security that meets enterprise standards, and a management tool that keeps you in control as your deployment grows.
You do not have to think about all of this every day. That is the point.
