PDA Security
Mobile devices such as PDAs and smartphones have become a key tool for traveling and teleworking employees to help enable their digital lives both in the office and on the road. As more employees, including executives, begin to carry such devices, the amount of sensitive and confidential information at risk increases-increasing the need for PDA security and smartphone application security.
While PDAs and smartphones can greatly enhance employee productivity, they can be easily lost or stolen. Without protection, sensitive data stored on mobile devices may be breached, potentially resulting in damages, including lost revenue, regulatory penalties and loss of brand reputation and goodwill.
Entrust delivers PDA security for the following handheld devices:
- Pocket PC and Pocket PC Phone Edition
- Palm OS®
- BlackBerry® (specifically email security)
Entrust delivers smartphone application security for Symbian OS™ on:
- Sony Ericsson P800/P900
- Nokia 9200 and 9500 Communicator series
- Nokia 9300 smartphone
Entrust Entelligence Mobile Security mitigates risk by securing high value information stored on mobile devices that use Pocket PC, Palm OS® or Symbian OS™. The PDA security aids regulatory compliance through automatic encryption based on US government certified algorithms and/or access control. Entrust Entelligence Media Security can enforce organizational security policy without relying on user intervention. It simplifies security with transparent security functions and centralizes management for policy deployment, enforcement and for data recovery (Pocket PC/Palm OS). 
For Research in Motion (RIM) BlackBerry® users, Entrust and RIM have worked closely to provide seamless integration with Entrust's desktop S/MIME software, the Entrust Entelligence Messaging Server product and the RIM BlackBerry handheld device. As a result, customers using the BlackBerry platform are able to enjoy simpler, more flexible email security with the BlackBerry handheld.
