Companies Can Now Quickly Deploy Complete Secure, Remote Access Solution For Mobile Devices

San Jose, California; RSA Tradeshow — February 14, 2006 - 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."
