May 14, 2007
BLUE BELL, Pa., May 14, 2007 – Fiberlink Communications Corporation, the trusted expert for simple, secure mobile working, has been selected as a finalist for its flagship product, Extend360 Mobility Platform™, in the category of "Best Wireless Broadband Security Innovation" at the Wireless Broadband Innovation Awards 2007 to be hosted in London on May 23. According to awards organizers, over 170 entries were received this year and judges representing industry experts, service providers and enterprise IT executives selected the Fiberlink solution, which offers a single portal for managing endpoint security and wireless services, for this highly regarded distinction.
"We are very pleased to be recognized in Europe as an innovator in the mobile security space," said Steve Hammond, president of Fiberlink International. "As mobile workers continue to be productive remotely, enterprise IT managers can no longer turn a blind eye to endpoints outside of the corporate network. Trusted information security is essential to assess and protect crucial entry points by remote employees, customers and vendors."
Fiberlink’s platform integrates the management of endpoint security and
wireless services so enterprises can increasingly embrace mobile working while managing the risk
associated with mobility. With the Extend360 Mobility Platform, enterprises can provision global
network services and remain in control of device compliance with corporate security and regulatory
policies without having to make large infrastructure and personnel investments.
"This is a very strong shortlist, which reflects the quality of entries," said Michael
Gebert, founder and organizer of the WBI Awards. "There’s an excellent balance between big
players and new innovative projects."
Winners will be announced on May 23 at a ceremony in London. For details and the complete list of finalists for the Wireless Broadband Innovation Awards, visit www.wbiawards.com.
