Lookout particularly stands out due to the following developments and innovations:

• Lookout recently discovered an initial security vulnerability in Google Glass, which apparently directed users to websites with controlled infections with no warning whatsoever.
• Lookout was the first provider to offer a “Lock Cam” function in its “Lookout” app, which informs smartphone owners when a false password is entered on their device three times in a row. Lock Cam then uses the device’s front-mounted camera to take a photograph of the current user, which it sends to the owner by e-mail together with details of the device’s most recent location, thus enabling device owners to quickly catch data thieves.
• Lookout was also the first provider to come up with the idea of a “Signal Flare”, a function that identifies mobile devices' battery statuses and sends owners an e-mail containing details of their device's last known location when its battery level drops below 15 percent.
