Stormshield and Gemalto join forces to increase the protection of data exchanges for mobile devices
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Stormshield Data Security for Mobility integrates Gemalto's SafeNet MobilePKI to
provide optimum end-to-end data security without deploying any additional
infrastructure
Paris and Amsterdam, July 7, 2016 - Stormshield, a subsidiary of Airbus Defence
and Space and a key player in the cyber security market, and Gemalto (Euronext
NL0000400653 GTO), the world leader in digital security, are strengthening their
technological relationship with the development of this technology capable of
providing end-to-end security for the connection and data exchanges with mobile
devices. This new development will allow users of tablets and smartphones to
exchange email message securely and to protect their data on tablets on the
move.
By 2020 it is estimated that 1.2 billion tablets will be in use and 70% of the
world's population will have smartphones. Bluetooth and NFC allow organizations
that need to ensure the security and integrity of sensitive data with advanced
solutions, to provide the most commonly used means for authentication and data
exchanges between these devices.
Stormshield and Gemalto have developed this security technology that enables
secure connections for all mobile devices within an enterprise to easily
exchange data. Stormshield Data Security for Cloud & Mobility enables users to
share and store data in a collaborative environment on all existing media and
applications. The solution integrates with Gemalto's SafeNet MobilePKI to
provide strong PKI-based authentication and secure access for applications on
any device.
SafeNet MobilePKI uses Bluetooth® Smart technology to enable mobile devices to
communicate securely with PKI smartcards. As a result, organizations can more
fully realize the benefits afforded by their mobile applications, and at the
same time consistently safeguard integrity and trust with their strong Public
Key Infrastructure (PKI) environments.
"We are proud to work with Gemalto and thus enhance PKI security for our
solution," said Pierre Calais, CEO of Stormshield. "The Safenet MobilePKI
solution embedded in the Stormshield Data Security for Mobility application thus
provides optimum end-to-end data security without deploying any additional
infrastructure."
"Mobility is paramount for the success of businesses, and the requirements for
secure authentication and digital signature are increasingly important to assure
the integrity of digital interactions," said François Lasnier, SVP Identity
Protection at Gemalto. "The relationship with Stormshield is a continuation of
our work to extend authentication and PKI security solutions to mobile devices."
