LEE, MA--(Marketwired - May 9, 2013) - Wave Systems Corp. (
Fujitsu will emphasize the availability of Wave Mobility Pro - Tablet Edition, which makes use of hardware security onboard tablets running Windows 8 for seamless authentication to the network -- all without the hassle of entering passwords. Mobility Pro also manages encryption, including Microsoft BitLocker™ and self-encrypting drives, where encryption takes place within the drive itself.
"With the growing demand for our STYLISTIC® and LIFEBOOK® models it made perfect sense for us to join forces with Wave in making Mobility Pro available directly to our customers who have asked for a management solution for Windows 8," commented Paul Moore, vice president product management and marketing, mobile products at Fujitsu. "No other ISV offers the range of options and flexibility for managing multiple types of encryption on various form factors, from tablets to laptops."
The distribution agreement covers Wave's complete portfolio, empowering organizations to:
- Make your device safe to lose. Wave Cloud is ideal for managing Opal self-encrypting drives from the cloud. Wave for BitLocker™ Management enables the fast deployment of BitLocker™, the native encryption feature from Microsoft.
- Eliminate passwords. Enable virtual smartcards for second factor authentication or protect credentials while using Microsoft DirectAccess.
- Ensure that only known devices are allowed on known networks. EMBASSY Remote Administration Server for Device Identification establishes persistent device identity that can't be spoofed. Gain increased visibility into endpoint health and spot rootkits before the operating system loads with Wave Endpoint Monitor.
"Fujitsu America's reach and excellent reputation for delivering industry-leading tablets and convertibles will provide a solid platform for bringing Wave Mobility Pro to a wider market," commented Steven Sprague, CEO of Wave Systems.
"We're excited to collaborate with Wave and Fujitsu to deliver a complete solution for secure and fast storage. For increasing security and efficiency, you can't do better than a well-managed self encrypted solid-state drive," said Justin Sykes, general manager of Micron's client SSD division. "In fact, we're such big believers in encryption that it's now standard for our client SSDs."
