Motorola has recently unveiled that its Good Mobile Messaging Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (Good S/MIME) is certified by the US Army with the ATO designation (Army’s Authority to Operate). This means that the Good S/MIME product is now suited for use by the US Department of Defense, as well as by the U.S. Government.

 

Working with a vast range of Windows Mobile handsets (like Motorola Q and Motorola Q9), Good S/MIME offers features like secure mobile messaging in conjunction with CAC (common access card) authentication, over the air synchronization, email/attachment signing and encryption, laptop-like functionality on smartphones and a Web-based monitoring portal.

 

Talking about Moto's product, Senior Mobility Strategist at Microsoft Federal, Randy Siegel, declared, “Motorola’s Good Technology Group has built a secure, two-factor smartcard authentication email solution that integrates with the Windows Mobile platform and offers our joint customers additional choice. Good Mobile Messaging is not only intuitive and easy-to-use for administrators and device users, it also routes all message traffic through Good’s Network Operations Centers located within the borders of the Continental United States. Keeping information secure is critical for our Federal and U.S. Public Sector customers.”

 

Director of Government Sales at Motorola Good Technology Group, Mark Williams, added, “Good Mobile Messaging S/MIME has passed the ultimate security test by receiving ATO certification from the U.S. Army. Organizations within the DoD are always on the go and rely on messaging solutions to keep their workforce productive and secure. Motorola is now part of an elite group of vendors that can sell to the Army, which is a testament to the depth and breadth of our offering – and truly listening to the voice of our customer base.”

 

Good Mobile Messaging S/MIME can be acquired via Motorola's certified value-added resellers or via the Motorola Good Technology Group official website.
