Wireless VPN attains Windows Mobile certification
Jun. 26, 2006

[Updated June 28] -- NetMotion Wireless Inc.'s wireless VPN (virtual private network) software has achieved "Designed for Windows Mobile" certification through Microsoft's Mobile2Market program, the company announced on June 26. Additionally, Mobility XE Mobile VPN is the first VPN software to be certified for Windows Mobile 5.0 smartphone edition, according to NetMotion.

Interoperability with Windows Mobile 5.0 will become increasingly important as the number of Windows Mobile 5.0 powered devices deployed among mobile workers grows, the company says. IDC recently reported that Windows Mobile deployments increased 77 percent between Q1 of 2005 and Q1 of 2006, according to NetMotion.

The Mobility XE Mobile VPN keeps workers securely connected to critical data and applications, despite roaming between networks or in and out of coverage gaps, the company claims. The software effectively creates a single unified network out of a multi-network environment, maintaining application sessions so mobile workers can work without disruption, according to the company.

NetMotion also announced general availability of version 7.0 of Mobility XE that was released as a beta last month. The new release features expanded scalability for up to 15,000 simultaneous users and RSA-certified integration of SecurID two-factor authentication.

"Thanks to advancements such as Windows Mobile 5.0, mobile computing is becoming a common part of mainstream enterprise IT practices," said NetMotion Wireless CEO Bob Hunsberger. "But true enterprise mobile computing is about more than email and the internet -- it's about reliable access to enterprise applications, protected by rock-solid security and supported by centralized management that incorporates every device type an organization uses..."

Mobility XE 7.0 is available immediately, according to NetMotion. Pricing starts at $15,000 for 100 devices, or $105,000 for 1,000 mobile devices.
