InnoPath Software
Partners with O3SIS to provide Mobile Device
Management Enabled Backup & Restore Solution
Leader in MDM to Demonstrate
New Ability to Provide Remote Recovery as Part
of an End-to-End Security Solution at Upcoming
Symbian Smartphone Show
London, October
15, 2007 – InnoPath
Software, the leader in Mobile Device Management
(MDM) solutions, has entered into an OEM agreement
with O3SIS of Cologne, Germany, to bring to market
a complete Integrated Mobile Device Management (iMDM)
based Backup & Restore solution.
As operators migrate from early MDM deployments
focused on firmware-over-the-air (FOTA) and configuration
management, to a focus on enabling new revenue generating
applications, the ability to provide end-to-end lifecycle
security management through the iMDM platform is
a key requirement for services that include Lock & Wipe,
Backup & Restore, and Anti-Virus/Firewall.
“The MDM platform plays a critical role in
lifecycle customer management,” said David
Ginsburg, VP of Marketing and Product Management
at InnoPath. “The Backup & Restore solution
rounds out a comprehensive security solution based
on our industry-leading iMDM Server Suite.”
A leader in the Backup & Restore space, O3SIS
serves more than twenty implementations in production
with leading operators including Vodafone, T-Mobile,
O2 and many others. By partnering with O3SIS, InnoPath
is able to offer consumer and enterprise customers
of operators the Backup & Restore capability
as another advantage of its iMDM suite. This results
in security of data storage, reduced churn and minimized
revenue loss when devices are lost, stolen, or upgraded,
and convenience through a remote over-the-air approach.
“Mobile Backup & Restore provides peace
of mind for the end-customers of mobile operators
and builds on the importance to drive additional
revenue-generating voice, messaging and data applications” said
Bernd Rützel, Chief Sales Officer at O3SIS.
By enhancing InnoPath’s iMDM Lock & Wipe
capabilities with Backup & Restore, a lost or
stolen device can be locked and secured in an instant,
or wiped clean altogether with the ability to restore
and retrieve data at another point in time if the
phone is found or the subscriber buys a replacement.
This ability also ensures that if the device falls
into the wrong hands, it’s nothing more than
a brick.
IDC’s recent report* recognized InnoPath
as the MDM leader in its ability to gain market share
and alignment with market opportunities. InnoPath
has also recently been acknowledged by Inc. Magazine
as an Inc. 500 recipient.
InnoPath and O3SIS will be jointly demonstrating
a complete server and client backup & restore
solution on S60 at the upcoming Symbian Smartphone
Show, 16-17 Oct in London. Additional information
