Secure Web Browser Launched for Android Smartphones
Published on:
Good Technology has the availability of Good Mobile Access (GMA) for Android, a secure mobile browser for Android devices.
GMA is a feature of the company's services that offer secure mobile access to behind-the-firewall applications, resources and data without needing a virtual private network (VPN) connection.
"Consumer use of Android devices has really taken off, and we are seeing increased enterprise adoption, especially among our customers who support formal BYOD programs," said John Herrema, senior vice president of corporate strategy at Good Technology. "Supporting BYOD means supporting Android devices, and we want to make sure our customers can confidently embrace this trend, increase employee productivity, and not have to compromise on security or compliance."
The GMA for Android solution leverages Good's NOC-based infrastructure to enable access to corporate networks without needing a VPN or other secure channel technology.
This application-specific secure transport prevents malicious apps from accessing the broader corporate environment and eliminates the need to expose enterprise infrastructure and applications to denial-of-service, phishing, and other attacks. To provide increased security and prevent data loss at the device-level, GMA also encrypts browser cache, cookies, bookmarks, and history within Good's secure, enterprise container and allows IT to control whether content and documents can be copied to, or opened in other applications.
Good Mobile Access for Android is available immediately to all Good for Enterprise customers using version 1.9.0 or higher.
