Leading Mobile Device Management Company InnoPath Partners With SMobile Systems To Provide Mobile Device Security

Enables Key End-to-End Mobile Security Solution for Both Operators and Subscribers

Sunnyvale , California and COLUMBUS, Ohio, September 12, 2007 — Mobile phones are no longer just for making phone calls, they hold vital personal data including financial information. These increasingly popular devices are Internet-enabled and vulnerable to attacks from mobile hackers and identity thieves, making security for this sensitive information not an option – but a must.

To meet the exploding need for handset-based and carrier-level security, InnoPath Software (www.innopath.com), the leader in end-to-end mobile device management, and SMobile Systems (www.smobilesystems.com), a pioneer developer of comprehensive anti-intrusion and anti-virus security products for mobile networks and devices, have signed a definitive, global agreement to offer wireless carriers an efficient means for activating new security features directly on their customers’ wireless devices.

The collaboration integrates the SMobile firewall, anti-virus, and security policy enforcement capabilities into InnoPath’s Integrated Mobile Device Management (iMDM) architecture, and is driven by the need for wireless operators to better protect the increasing number of applications on today’s mobile phones and handheld devices.

“Individuals and businesses are becoming more reliant on mobile phones, PDAs and other mobile data devices for everything from complex business transactions to everyday communications. These devices are becoming so integrated into our daily lives that we don’t leave home or work without them. The data stored on these devices has become of critical value and therefore protecting it from outside attacks, or even from unintended loss, is of the utmost importance,” said David Ginsburg, Vice President, Marketing & Product Management for InnoPath. “Today, without a unified device management capability, it would be cost-prohibitive to provision and maintain software updates across the vast number of devices and applications that are powered by carrier networks. SMobile understands InnoPath’s iMDM architecture and together we have developed the most integrated over-the-air approach to save the operator significant operational expenses and dramatically reduce the time to provision, diagnose and refresh mobile devices with critical security updates.”

InnoPath counts major operators in Japan (KDDI, Softbank) and North America (AT&T, Sprint) among its key customers and serves a total carrier subscriber base of more than 255 million users through its server platform. Additionally, InnoPath’s iMDM client has been ported to over 200 handset models.

Under terms of the agreement, InnoPath’s iMDM offer will incorporate the SMobile VirusGuard and SMobile Firewall security products that reside in mobile devices, complemented by SMobile CoreStats, the operator’s end-to-end security policy enforcement and management system.

“Partnering with InnoPath is an important step in helping to make the SMobile security platform the industry standard around the world,” said Richard “Rick” Roscitt, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SMobile Systems. “Considering InnoPath’s market presence, we foresee that our security products will soon be embedded in millions of mobile devices.”
