MobileTrax is a globally recognized professional services firm that focuses on the mobile computing and wireless data communications markets.

“We are honored to be recognized by MobileTrax for the third consecutive year for our continued innovation and leadership within the mobile security market,” stated Bob Heard, founder and CEO of CREDANT. “Innovation is key to staying ahead of threats to data that leaves the office everyday on notebook computers, PDAs, smart phones, and USB thumb drives. Unlike older products that have been around for ten – fifteen years and focus on encrypting the device only, a solution today has to ‘follow the data’ to ensure it is protected while at rest on all end points.”

CREDANT’s phenomenal success in securing 1.8 million mobile devices in a record three years is based on the rapid adoption of the CREDANT Mobile Guardian mobile security software by industry leaders, including 21 of the Fortune 100 companies who now use CREDANT Mobile Guardian to securely mobilize their workforce.
