Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command Awards Contract to Trust Digital
for Mobile Device Security

Smartphone Security Software Secures Mission-Critical Information for Warfighters

McLean, Virginia, – May 22, 2008Trust Digital, the leading enterprise mobility management provider, today announced the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) has awarded the company a contract to meet the Information Assurance requirements for the Dismounted Data Automated Communication Terminal (D-DACT). Under the terms of the contract, Trust Digital will supply its smartphone security software to protect D-DACT mobile devices.

D-DACT mobiles devices – ruggedized, waterproof, networked PDAs – are currently used by the warfighter for situational awareness, command and control, navigation, basic mission planning and electronic messaging. While convenient, current D-DACT devices are neither inherently secure nor are they traditionally employed in secure environments. SPAWAR selected Trust Digital’s device loss protection software based on its ability to transparently secure information on the D-DACT without affecting device performance and use.

Trust Digital's smartphone security software solution provides the warfighter with device loss protection that includes: password protection, encrypted data-at-rest, application restriction and the purging of data, also referred to as "device wipe".

COMMENTARY
"Trust Digital is proud to work with SPAWAR to improve its information delivery processes and to supply a secure solution that meets the mission-critical needs and objectives of the warfighter," said Nick Magliato, CEO of Trust Digital. "Device loss protection is a key part of our mobility management platform, helping IT organizations mitigate the largest risk associated with handheld mobile devices.
