iboss Network Security Announces Industry’s First Unified Mobile Device Management and Network Security Solution

SAN DIEGO, Calif.–(Marketwired – March 25, 2014) – iboss Network Security today announced the availability of MobileEther, the industry’s first mobile device management (MDM) solution that goes beyond traditional mobile device management to provide organizations with robust security and compliance capabilities.

MobileEther is the only mobile security solution that combines traditional MDM such as data loss prevention with advanced web and mobile malware protection, detailed reporting and directory-based user authentication. Combined, these features enable organizations to leverage the benefits of a mobile workforce while adhering to the strictest security and compliance standards.

“Smartphones and tablets are considered essential in almost every workforce. However, the need for these devices to meet regulatory requirements undermines the effectiveness of traditional mobile device management solutions,” said Paul Martini, CEO, iboss. “Many organizations resort to deploying two solutions to address security and compliance needs. MobileEther solves this challenge by providing a unified approach to managing and securing mobile devices across the enterprise.”

MobileEther provides organizations with direct business benefits. For example, the solution’s unified reporting significantly improves employee productivity. MobileEther also shortens response times to corrective actions, which can reduce the financial impact of a lost, stolen, or compromised device.

MobileEther ensures that mobile devices in the workplace comply with, among others, CIPA, HIPAA, PCI and FISMA regulations, as well as the Acceptable Use Policy. Key benefits include:

• HTTP/S web filtering with flexible user access and directory integration

• Traffic scanning and identification of embedded threats (malware, botnets, new/unknown threats)

• Identifying and securing unencrypted, sensitive data transmissions (credit card details, social security numbers)

• Advanced signature and heuristic-based intrusion prevention and detection

• Cloud-based email security scanning to detect viruses, malware, data loss, and protect against DoS attacks

The iboss MobileEther platform is now available. For a demo, contact [email protected].
