Aiko Solutions releases SecuBox version 1.5 - strong data encryption for Windows Mobile phones

London, UK - Aiko Solutions, Europe's leading Windows Mobile security software developer, have released SecuBox version 1.5, an advanced data encryption solution for Windows Mobile phones. SecuBox provides transparent on-the-fly encryption of data stored in the smartphone memory and its media cards. SecuBox protects corporate and personal information in case the mobile devices get lost or stolen. SecuBox is Windows Mobile 6 certified.

SecuBox makes it possible for any Windows Mobile user to enjoy state-of-the-art security without changing their work routines. Anyone can securely store their confidential documents, private files and images and customer data in a SecuBox container, protected by AES 256 bit encryption, the U.S. government standard encryption algorithm. SecuBox ensures no data leaks occur on the go, as it will automatically lock data when the user becomes inactive or when the phone goes into "sleep" mode. "We have designed this new version to provide not only reliability and maximum security, but offer such convenience that can make encryption a good habit," says Alexander Kutsy, Aiko Solutions CTO.
