Monday, June 26, 2006 – Columbus, OH.
Business & Industry Leaders Richard R. Roscitt and James P. Holden Join Team, Further Validating Strength of SMobile's Strategy and Solutions.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 26 /PRNewswire/ -- SMobile Systems, delivering the industry's only comprehensive, cross-platform mobile security solution for wireless carriers and device manufacturers, reinforced its role as the market leader for secure mobile services and solutions with the addition of two business and industry veterans to its leadership team. Richard R. Roscitt, former President of MCI and CEO of AT&T Solutions, joins as Chairman, and James P. Holden, former CEO and President of DaimlerChrysler, joins as Vice Chairman.
Backed by continued research and development from the SMobile Threat Center(TM), the SMobile security framework, which has been deployed with major wireless carriers around the world, not only protects against current intrusions, but automatically monitors and repels new threats as they emerge.
"We're seeing increased demand from mobile carriers and manufacturers as they step up their focus on security, and provide consumers with the highest levels of protection from their personal technology. SMobile offers complete anti-virus, firewall, and SMS protection across the broadest range of mobile platforms and devices on the market, including the only anti-virus solution for Blackberry wireless handhelds," said George Tuvell, CEO of SMobile Systems. "With a small footprint and zero impact to device performance or memory, our solutions easily transform regular mobile phones into secure mobile or 'SMobile' phones."
"We've seen what has happened in the PC industry; the threat to mobile security is just as real. Mobile phones are quickly becoming the device to have for email, instant messaging, contact information, content downloads, mobile payments - and more than three billion mobile users are expected before the end of the decade," said Roscitt. "SMobile is clearly leading the way with an ever growing presence in the market, and an industry-tested platform that brings security applications to mobile phones as easily as it does to the PC."
