Defending the Wireless Cloud

With privately held Mocana's release of its new NanoDefender application for
mobile devices last week, security in the wireless domain is beginning to come
into focus. NanoDefender uses a unique approach that monitors the performance of
the device itself, and which moves to eliminate any application that pushes
performance outside of predefined limits.

Nemertes' study, The Internet Singularity: Delayed, predicts that
wireless will increasingly become a viable option for Internet access. Security
is an essential enabler.

Impacts:

Enterprises: Concerns about security in the mobile application space are
being addressed. Now is a good time to re-examine any plans that were on hold as
a consequence of such concerns.

Vendors: Delivering a secure environment to mobile users is essential to
penetrate the business market. Take a look at Mocana.

Investors: Security is a major enabler of mobility. Watch carriers that move
to implement security within their devices and networks.
