mFormation Brings 'Over the Air' Management to Wireless Computing

mFormation ENTERPRISE MANAGER Provides Complete Solution for Security, Control and Management of Wireless Deployments

December 5, 2001

mFormation(TM) Technologies Inc., an emerging provider of Wireless Infrastructure Management software, today announced its strategy to deliver comprehensive management solutions for rapidly growing wireless data deployments. To meet this critical marketplace need, the company has launched mFormation ENTERPRISE MANAGER, the most complete solution for securing, controlling and managing enterprise wireless deployments across multiple devices and networks.

mFormation ENTERPRISE MANAGER is unique in its ability to provide real-time, "over the air" control and management for all of the components of the wireless data network--devices, users, applications and network components. All of the components of the wireless infrastructure can be managed anywhere, at any time, without requiring that the devices be connected to the LAN or "cradled". mFormation ENTERPRISE MANAGER significantly reduces the cost and complexity of enterprise wireless device deployments, providing corporate IT with the same levels of security, control and management for the wireless infrastructure as they have over the rest of the IT infrastructure.

"Wireless data devices are rapidly changing the way companies do business," said Ron Pettengill, mFormation CEO. "As bandwidth increases, networks grow more robust, and email, messaging and other wireless applications become entrenched in the enterprise, IT organizations need a centralized, secure way to manage their wireless deployments, no matter how many different devices, applications, network protocols or geographies are involved. This is particularly true in industries such as health care, financial services, law enforcement and government, where security, data privacy and control are critical. mFormation's goal is to provide complete security and control for the enterprise's wireless infrastructure, regardless of how large it grows or how complex it gets."

Sophisticated Control Over Wireless Deployments

mFormation ENTERPRISE MANAGER is a complete wireless infrastructure management platform that enables enterprises to secure, control and manage wireless deployments over the air from a convenient, centralized, Web-based console. It provides:

-- Complete, over-the-air security and control over users,

devices, data and applications: IT staff can remotely locate, lock/unlock or delete selected content from devices reported lost or stolen, and enforce password policies--over the air, in real time.

-- End-to-end performance and fault management: IT staff get an end-to-end view of performance together with the ability to accurately pinpoint and resolve user, network and device problems anywhere in the network--before they impact productivity.

-- Complete asset and configuration management: IT staff can view current and historical device, user, transaction, application and network usage information, enabling them to keep track of how and where wireless resources are being used in the field, and helping them resolve problems more rapidly.
