Consumer cloud-service applications developer Exclaim Mobility will launch a new consumer mobile device security service, Snap Secure, as a result of the company’s recent acquisition of Smart Solutions and its SmrtGuard mobile security, privacy, data backup and restore application.
The Snap Secure mobile applications, cloud connectivity and the user data will be built on the success of SmrtGuard as an Android and BlackBerry device security platform.
Exclaim Mobility will support tablets, personal computers, televisions and other internet-enabled media devices under a unified offering and monthly subscription. Further the company expands its device support to Symbian, Windows and certain Java feature phones.
Exclaim Mobility president and CEO Jiren Parikh said Snap Secure will give consumers enhanced security from viruses, malware, and data loss, as well as privacy management which is critical for consumers who rely heavily on their mobile devices as a primary computing platform.
"We have a great opportunity to capture a part of the growing global mobile security market, which is expected to reach $8.2b by 2015, and deliver world-class security for consumers who want to protect their devices, personal information, financial data and content, including photos, videos, music, documents, as well as email and SMS messages," said Parikh.
As part of this acquisition, SmrtGuard’s founder and CEO, Robert Kao, will join Exclaim Mobility’s senior management team as Vice President.
