Mobile Active Defense and FishNet Security Join Forces in Partnership Focused on Mobile Platforms

ATLANTA, Oct. 12, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Mobile Active Defense, the Smartphone Security Company, announced today that it has formed a partnership with FishNet Security, the nation's leading provider of information security solutions that combine technology, services, support and training. Under the agreement, FishNet Security will offer a broader range of services to protect and secure mobile devices to all its customers with the most stringent compliance and security standards available today.

In the "Age of the Smartphone," there's never been a more important time to focus on Enterprise Mobility. The Mobile Enterprise Compliance Security (MECS) Solution, now available through FishNet Security, combines advanced security technology with mobile device management to enable customers to identify, prioritize, manage, secure and remediate their entire mobile population while protecting the information stored on these multiple mobile platforms and tablet devices.

"Our partnership helps align our shared vision of a truly safe and secure mobile computing experience for everyone, without limiting them to only approved devices," said Spencer Cobb, CEO of Mobile Active Defense. "We are delighted that FishNet Security chose our award-winning technology."

FishNet Security customers will now be able to go beyond just Mobile Device Management (MDM) by extending existing enterprise and network security policies across the variety of mobile platforms with complete enforced encryption, CA, granular policy driven firewall controls, and real-time content filtering, including jailbreak detection and remediation.

"We're pleased to add Mobile Active Defense's unique mobile security capabilities to our portfolio of best-of-breed mobile security partners," said Joey Peloquin, director of Mobile Security at FishNet Security. "The ability to leverage a stateful packet inspection (SPI) firewall for mobile devices, control data loss through personal email management, provide content filtering, and run all Internet protocol traffic over an always-on AES-256 VPN connection provides mobile device protection above and beyond standard MDM policies for the enterprise's mobile workforce."
