Companies Can Now Quickly Deploy Complete Secure, Remote Access Solution for
Mobile Devices
SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- RSA Tradeshow -- Trust Digital,
the leading provider of enterprise mobile security software solutions, and
Aventail, the leading SSL VPN product company, today introduced an integrated
mobile security solution. The joint solution leverages Aventail's secure,
remote access appliance and Trust Digital's policy-based security for mobile
devices.
"Our customers have two urgent mobile security requirements -- one, they
need a secure tunnel into the enterprise, and, two, they need secure endpoints
from which to connect," said Michael Riemer, EVP Marketing and Business
Development, Trust Digital. "With Aventail securing the access and Trust
Digital securing the device, you can secure your mobile initiatives at a
reduced cost while leveraging your existing infrastructure."
This first of its kind solution is carrier and network agnostic, covering
CDMA-EVDO, GPRS-Edge, and WiFi networks. The solution will initially target
enterprises deploying Windows mobile devices (Pocket PC 2003 2nd Edition and
Mobile 5).
"Mobile devices are a huge security risk. They are easily lost or stolen
and present an easy avenue of attack for hackers, and yet, enterprises can not
afford to deny the 100 million global mobile workers access to corporate
resources and lose the associated productivity and cost savings," said Charles
Kolodgy, research director, Secure Content and Threat Management Products, at
IDC. "Aventail and Trust Digital are taking positive steps to increase mobile
device security by combining the access and security components. This will
allow network managers to provide access while maintaining control and
security of mobile devices."
The solution features policy-based end point security from Trust Digital
and secure access using Aventail Mobile, an SSL VPN client for Windows smart
phones and PDAs, and provides full support for:
-- Microsoft Exchange Active Sync (part of SP2 for Exchange 2003)
-- Web Applications
-- Thick client applications
"The explosion in mobile device usage and the ever-increasing mobility of
today's workforce is driving enterprises to extend remote access to mobile
devices, such as PDAs and Smartphones, which is why Aventail is at the
forefront of the SSL VPN market with our Aventail Mobile solution," said Sarah
Daniels, vice president of marketing and product management, Aventail. "Trust
Digital's policy-based mobile security solution integrates perfectly with
Aventail's mobile access technology, allowing us to deliver a complete, easy
to use solution to our customers."
This joint solution is available immediately through both companies.
