Route1 launches smart card encryption system
Route1 Inc. announced the launch of MobiENCRYPT, a hardware solution delivering remote and local full disk encryption access that exceeds the most stringent government and military privacy and security standards. MobiENCRYPT enables a secure mobile workforce by leveraging identity card-based credentials to protect government organizations from data-at-rest loss and security breaches.
