Mocana Selected as an AlwaysOn 'Global 250 Company to Watch'


SAN FRANCISO --(Business Wire)--

Mocana (News - Alert), the app security leader, today announced that it has been named as one of the 'AlwaysOn Global 250 Companies to Watch.' Mocana was selected by the AlwaysOn editorial team and industry experts based on five criteria: innovation, market potential, commercialization, stakeholder value, and media buzz. The AlwaysOn Global 250 winners were selected from among hundreds of other technology companies nominated by investors, bankers, journalists, and industry insiders.

Mocana, the industry's most trusted app security provider, has pioneered the app protection technology known as app wrapping. Mocana's Mobile App Protection™ (MAP™) solution accelerates wide-scale deployment of enterprise apps by reliably adding a security 'shield' to any app in seconds, regardless of device platform, and without the need to write any code. With per-application VPN capabilities, FIPS 140-2 data-at-rest encryption and other robust and popular security features for protecting sensitive information, MAP protects corporate data from unauthorized access and prevents data loss. MAP lets IT certify their app security system just once, rather than vetting every app for security. With MAP, enterprises can avoid the costs, time and headaches of writing security code and deliver automated, consistent security for their apps with confidence.

Mocana and the AlwaysOn Global 250 Companies to Watch will be honored at AlwaysOn's tenth annual Innovation Summit at the Computer History Museum on July 23, 2013. This two-day executive athering highlights the significant economic, political, and commercial trends affecting global technology industries. Innovation Summit's goal is to identify the most promising entrepreneurial and investment opportunities in tech.



"A mature mobile marketplace, coupled with reliability and stability in the cloud, is bringing innovation and opportunity to the Global Silicon Valley," said Tony Perkins, founder and editor of AlwaysOn. "We congratulate Mocana and other AlwaysOn Global 250 Companies to Watch, companies that our editors believe represent some of the highest-growth opportunities in today's private company marketplace."

"It is an honor to be recognized as an AlwaysOn Global 250 winner," said Adrian Turner (News - Alert), chief executive officer of Mocana. "Security is the single fundamental capability that spans mobile users, devices, applications, and delivery channels, and we are pleased to be recognized for our innovations in enterprise mobility."
