This meeting will focus on the growing importance of Smartphones for corporate organisations that are planning to deploy secure mobile applications to their users (i.e. employees, contractors, or close business partners) for use with authentication, encryption and digital signatures. This meeting will give attendees an overview of the key issues and decisions they will need to employ strong authentication in an appropriate and cost effective way for their business and the types of processes associated with the key architectural and management options. As device manufacturers continue to add processing power and storage capacity, and platform vendors provide more applications for generating and consuming data, the greater the security threat to these devices will become. This meeting will focus on practical guidance to companies who are looking to implement a secure mobile solution. The topics to be covered are: - • Business drivers • Smartphone data security and authentication running most of the major mobile operating systems • User and application requirements • User experience and usability • Overview of the implementation options – in-house (product) or outsource (service/cloud) • Life cycle management - Processes and services • Device location and notification features (95% take mobiles and Smartphones on vacation with the expectation of working) • Securing the application versus the device This one day meeting will be invaluable for delegates who wish to gain an understanding of the Implementation options and challenges businesses will face when leveraging the benefits and opportunities of implementing a mobile application. It is aimed at planning, strategy, and development personnel who have an influence on policy, systems and the impact on commercial and business applications.
