Gemalto Trusted Services Hub expands secure service deployment to 350 million more mobile devices
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Amsterdam, February 17, 2015 - Gemalto (Euronext NL0000400653 GTO), the world
leader in digital security, is growing again the capabilities of its Allynis
Trusted Services Hub that permits an easy deployment of security-sensitive
applications by enterprises, banks and other digital service providers, adding
the reach to more than 350 million additional mobile devices equipped with
Trustonic Trusted Execution Environment (TEE)(1), including the Samsung Galaxy
range and other mobile devices from major handset makers. In practice,
enterprises and digital services providers connected to Gemalto's Allynis
Trusted Services Hub immediately gain access to 350 million additional potential
users, with Gemalto handling all the back-office process on their behalf.
The Trusted Execution Environment is an isolated hardware-protected processing
environment within smartphones and other devices that enables dynamic security-
sensitive applications on-the-go, such as authentication, VPN and secure email,
payment and content protection. By connecting to the Trustonic TEE, which is
embedded in a large number of connected objects and remotely activable, the
Allynis Trusted Service Hub is scaling up the addressable base of end users to
maximize market reach for service providers seeking secure, rapid and easy
deployment. For end users, the process is completely transparent. When a secure
app such as VPN is installed, Allynis Trusted Service Hub automatically secures
it into the TEE, providing users and service providers with reassurance of their
credentials, tokens and content data.
"TEE enabled devices offer the potential to simplify and expand the services
that end users experience. Making such technology accessible and simple to adopt
by application developers is the challenge," said Ben Cade, CEO of Trustonic.
"Today's announcement by Gemalto is a major step forward, unlocking a simple
path to deployment across hundreds of millions of TEE enabled devices. Taken
together with the scale of Gemalto's vertical businesses in enterprise, internet
and mobile banking and government, we look forward to seeing many TEE enhanced
services appearing through 2015".
"The capacities of the Allynis Trusted Service Hub are growing exponentially,
giving always more options to address market fragmentation. Today, the addition
of Trustonic TEE-enabled devices translates into hundreds of millions of new
reachable users by enterprises and service providers who wish to protect their
data, instantly", said Jean-Claude Deturche, Senior VP of Mobile Financial
Services at Gemalto. "Allynis Trusted Services Hub is fully technology-agnostic
and addresses any type of security framework. In addition to offering the
broadest reach of users, it also offers the most future-proof technology
enabling service providers to maximize market reach in a simple and secure
way across mobile platforms."
