Intellisync(R) Corporation and CREDANT Technologies Announce Partnership to Enhance Wireless Email
SAN JOSE, Calif. and DALLAS, April 6 -- Intellisync
Corporation (Nasdaq: SYNC), a leading developer and marketer of wireless email
and mobile software and CREDANT(R) Technologies, a market leader in enabling
organizations to control the security of their mobile workforce, have jointly
collaborated to enhance the mobile experience by making their respective
flagship products, Intellisync Mobile Suite and CREDANT(R) Mobile Guardian,
interoperable.
Compliance regulations, such as Sarbanes-Oxley, Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and
HIPAA, are mandating protection of sensitive data wherever it is stored --
including mobile devices. Some enterprises have been hesitant to secure these
devices because security software can be incompatible with the productivity
software used to power mobility. The interoperability of Intellisync software
and CREDANT Mobile Guardian virtually eliminates that concern.
"Customers use Intellisync because they need secure and flexible access to
e-mail, data and applications, but many customers also demand a higher level
of on-device security to complement Intellisync's system management security
features," said Intellisync Corporation Chief Operating Officer Clyde Foster.
"CREDANT Mobile Guardian provides that security, and because it is
interoperable with our product, the total user experience for our mutual
customers is excellent."
The use of mobile computing devices in the workplace has grown
exponentially in recent years. However, as use has increased, many companies
have neglected taking the necessary precautions to safeguard the sensitive
information stored on the thousands of mobile devices moving in and out of
their networks on a daily basis. With the ever-present danger of mobile
devices being lost or stolen, security software like CREDANT's award-winning
CREDANT Mobile Guardian offering have become increasingly important.
"Providing access to critical information anytime/anywhere represents a
significant opportunity to increase productivity," said CREDANT Technologies
President and CEO Bob Heard. "With the combination of Intellisync and
CREDANT, mobile enterprises are experiencing the benefits of increased
productivity, further protecting their brand from the loss of sensitive
information."
The interoperability between CREDANT Mobile Guardian and Intellisync
Mobile Suite offers enterprise organizations peace-of-mind that their mobile
device applications will work together smoothly and with enhanced device
security. The mobile device software offerings from both companies also are
proven to be interoperable in carrier and non-carrier environments, making
them attractive to a wide range of enterprise customers.
Intellisync and CREDANT are working together with a number of global joint
enterprise and carrier customers to achieve the benefits of their collective
solutions. "We are finding new ways to bring our products and selling teams
closer together to benefit our current and future customers," said Foster.
