PGP Security, a Network Associates business, today introduced PGPwireless, a new line of products designed to secure information on personal digital assistants (PDAs) and wireless phones. PGPwireless for PalmOS, based on the industry-leading PGP encryption technology and the first offering in the new wireless family of products, provides the highest level of encryption, decryption, digital signatures and authentication capabilities to secure information stored and transmitted on PDAs. The product is designed to inter-operate with the user's desktop to ensure corporate data is secured at all points of entry. This announcement was made today at Network Associates' annual analyst event. PGPwireless for PalmOS provides 256 bit strength encryption to secure data held and transferred via a PDA. With just a click of a button, any piece of sensitive data can be encrypted and decrypted in a matter of seconds. Additionally, with wireless Palms, key transfer has never been easier, users have the ability to "beam" their key between devices. Because PGP software compresses files, they are smaller than even the original file and do not take up additional memory on the PDA. The product has been designed to work with the user's desktop, incorporating "syncing" technology to transfer updated, encrypted files between devices.
