MOBILE ARMOR EXCELS AT MITIGATING CRITICAL DATA PROTECTION FLAWS CITED BY PRINCETON REPORT ON SECURITY FOR MOBILE DEVICES

Mobile Armor Protects Against Cold Boot Vulnerabilities

ST LOUIS, February 25, 2008 - In response to last week’s Princeton University Report on full disk encryption security flaws, Mobile Armor, the leader in data protection solutions, today said its DataArmor™ product has long included safeguards to prevent the types of exploits detailed in the report.

The Princeton Report found that through the use of simple tools thieves could capture the encryption keys from systems running disk encryption software from Microsoft, Apple, and TrueCrypt. ”While the DataArmor product provides similar functionality to the studied products, our solution goes far beyond the basics and is engineered to protect against the vulnerabilities cited in the Princeton Report,” said Bryan Glancey, chief technology officer of Mobile Armor.

”We have reviewed the research from the Princeton team and several of the defense techniques identified in the report have been present in the DataArmor system to prevent these types of attacks since its introduction. DataArmor is implemented using defense in depth techniques for encryption keys specifically to prevent the types of attacks described,” continued Glancey.

More secure than other offerings, DataArmor was architected and developed utilizing several patent-pending technologies that protect critical enterprise data from these modern threats. Integral in any secure implementation of cryptography is the secure protection of key information. Mobile Armor’s products guard against attacks on cryptographic key information at every stage of their lifetime wherever they reside. www.mobilearmor.com/coldboot.php

”Mobile Armor’s mission is the protection of critical enterprise data and to proactively develop products that prevent these types of attacks,” Chand Vyas, chairman and CEO of Mobile Armor. ”Our R and D program continually searches and tracks potential vulnerabilities and works toward offering new solutions capable of combating today’s evolving security threats. We applaud the Princeton Report scientists for their vigilance and expect that this report will have a lasting effect that increases the level of review and raises the bar on quality in the encryption marketplace.”
