SCOTTSDALE, Arizona, February 7, 2011 - CellTrust Corporation, the recognized worldwide leader in mobile secure
messaging and secure applications for mobile phones
(www.celltrust.com), announced today that Celcom, the largest 3G
operator in Malaysia (www.celcom.com.my), has deployed the
patents-pending, carrier grade CellTrust SecureSMS(TM) Consumer and CellTrust
SecureSMS(TM) Enterprise (SSMS) technology, to bring a secure messaging
solution to its wireless subscribers and enterprise customers.
Celcom has launched the CellTrust SecureSMS Consumer app for the
BlackBerry operating system, now available for download by Celcom's wireless
subscribers on the BlackBerry app store. Additionally, Celcom has made the
CellTrust SecureSMS Enterprise appliance model available to its corporate,
governmental and other enterprise customers featuring either a dedicated or
hosted server option, which can be integrated into their own enterprise
infrastructure. Celcom and CellTrust also plan to introduce a new Secure MMS
app this year, as part of a total secure messaging suite.
"Security product companies are hard at work developing a wide range of
security clients for mobile phones, from anti-malware and VPN access to
smartphone app security, but secure SMS has been largely ignored," said Jeff
Wilson, Principal Analysts, Security, Infonetics Research, Inc. "SMS is a
ubiquitous and indispensable communication tool for consumers and
enterprises, and the need for privacy and compliance will drive everyone to
solutions like CellTrust's SecureSMS."
"We are pleased to see Celcom take a leadership role in providing a
secure messaging solution to wireless subscribers in Malaysia," said Sean
Moshir, CEO of CellTrust. "Secure SMS is particularly critical now, as many
security threats have arisen over the recent months with regular SMS
communication. Secure messaging capabilities will set Celcom apart from other
wireless operators in the region."
