MobileIron Completes the Modern Enterprise Security PuzzleSAN FRANCISCO, June 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- MobileIron (NASDAQ: MOBL), the leader in enterprise mobile security, today announced powerful new capabilities to protect enterprise data wherever it lives: in the app, in the network, and in the cloud. The shift of the modern enterprise to mobile and cloud has forced a rethink of enterprise security fundamentals and, for many CIOs, it can feel like a complicated puzzle of new approaches and technologies. The capabilities revealed at MobileIron's Mobile First Conference in San Francisco provide an integrated end-to-end solution for that puzzle. "Modern enterprise security revolves around choice and trust. Employees and business units demand their choice of best-of-breed mobile and cloud services, and CIOs must establish a trust model that enables them to support that choice without putting corporate data at risk," said Ojas Rege, Vice President, Strategy, MobileIron. "This has been our guiding principle at MobileIron since our company founding, and this is the next stage of the security solution that we have been building for the last eight years." MobileIron Visual Privacy provides transparency to employees MobileIron Visual Privacy will let employees see exactly which data their company can view and which actions their company can take on the device. Transparency drives trust. MobileIron Visual Privacy will allow companies to narrow the trust gap between them and their employees. Employees will have peace-of-mind and this can accelerate their adoption of new mobile enterprise services and BYOD programs. MobileIron was granted U.S. Patent 8,695,058 for "selective management of mobile device data in an enterprise environment," the foundation of mobile privacy, in 2014. MobileIron Tunnel protects data in the network with multi-OS app VPN MobileIron plans to extend MobileIron Tunnel from iOS to Windows Phone and Android. This i designed to allow any app from the Windows Phone Store to use MobileIron Tunnel for secure connectivity at the app level and any app from Google Play installed through Android for Work to use MobileIron Tunnel at the workspace level. The IT administrator will be able to set certificate and VPN configuration settings behind the scenes, making enterprise access seamless for the employee. MobileIron Key Manager protects data in the cloud by giving the enterprise control over content encryption keys Today, MobileIron announced the MobileIron Key Manager, which is a new capability of CSS that allows the enterprise to use their own hardware security module (HSM) to safeguard the digital keys used by CSS. This is especially appealing for high-security and highly regulated enterprises. Key Manager supports both on-premise (SafeNet) and cloud (Amazon Web Services CloudHSM) deployments. This gives MobileIron customers their choice of how to manage their master keys. CSS will also extend support to Google Drive, which is one of the most popular cloud storage and collaboration tools for MobileIron customers. New MobileIron integrations make IT operations mobile-aware Making security operations mobile-aware: The new MobileIron integration with Splunk is designed to provide pre-compiled visualizations that can be used for PCI, CJIS, and SOX compliance programs. The integration will also feed information about security actions taken through the MobileIron platform into Splunk's security and compliance applications. As a result, MobileIron will enable security operations to be mobile-aware. Making the service desk mobile-aware: The new MobileIron integration with ServiceNow is designed to allow service desk technicians to view MobileIron asset data and take common MobileIron security actions from their ServiceNow console. For many organizations, ServiceNow is the system of record for all IT assets, and the MobileIron integration will allow mobile to be integrated into company-wide reporting and analytics. Scaling MobileIron ecosystem platform: MobileIron also announced the launch of its Customer Community Portal (community.mobileiron.com), which includes expanded developer resources, and MobileIron Marketplace (marketplace.mobileiron.com). These sites will create communities across MobileIron customers and partners, making it easier for ISVs to integrate their security solutions or apps with MobileIron, and for MobileIron customers to discover the solutions that are suitable for them.
