Cyberattacks are on the rise worldwide. Phishing, ransomware, data theft—no one is truly safe. Yet, with the right tools, you can browse more securely. Tango offers two concrete and complementary solutions: Net Protect Mobile and Net Protect Home.
Why cybersecurity matters to everyone
In 2024, Europe recorded a 64% increase in cyberattacks targeting individuals, according to a report by ENISA (European Union Agency for Cybersecurity). At the top of the list: phishing attacks, usually received via SMS, email, or social media. The goal is always the same: to steal your data, passwords, or banking information.
Just one click on a fraudulent link is enough to infect your smartphone or computer.
Concrete examples:
- You receive a text message from “La Poste” asking you to pay €1.50 for a package. The link looks legitimate… but it takes you to a fake website.
- An email from “your bank” warns you of a suspicious transaction. You're asked to log in to verify it. Another trap.
These methods have become more sophisticated, and it’s increasingly difficult to detect them at a glance.
Net Protect Mobile: Cybersecurity built into your mobile plan
Net Protect Mobile is a security service that can be integrated into your Tango mobile subscription, with no app to install. It works directly at the network level to protect all devices connected to your mobile plan.
What Net Protect Mobile does for you:
- Automatically blocks malicious websites before you visit them.
- Detects phishing links in SMS or emails.
- Protects against malicious apps.
- Works on all devices connected to your Tango mobile subscription.
You receive real-time alerts if a threat is detected. No need to be a cybersecurity expert — everything is automatic.
Net Protect Home: Protect all your Wi-Fi-connected devices
Net Protect Home is the logical extension of this protection, but for your home fixed internet connection.
Deployed directly on your Tango internet line, this service protects all your household devices: computers, smart TVs, consoles, tablets, and more.
Key benefits:
- Continuous monitoring of your home Wi-Fi network.
- Blocks threats early, before they reach your devices.
- Easy management via your Tango Customer Area.
- No software installation, no complex setup required.
Europe: Cyberattacks are surging
The numbers speak for themselves:
- In 2023, 1 in 3 Europeans was targeted by a phishing attempt (source: Eurostat).
- Luxembourg is not spared: the CSSF reported a 42% increase in digital banking fraud in just one year.
- France's ANSSI also noted a rise in ransomware attacks targeting small businesses… and private individuals.
Cybercriminals are now using artificial intelligence to make their traps harder to detect. Traditional protections are no longer enough. You need network-based, proactive, and automatic solutions like those offered by Tango.

Activation is simple:
- Net Protect Mobile is a mobile security option available from just €2/month, with no app to install. Activate it directly via the My Tango app. The first month is free.
