“We identified a need in the market, for strong encryption of sensitive
documents and imagery for Healthcare, Legal, Financial and Law Enforcement
mobile phone users. Mobile phones are being increasingly used to transmit
and receive sensitive material. If the phone is lost, or messages are
intercepted,or sent to the wrong recipient , the potential issues of
liability are very serious indeed. Fortress Suite addresses those issues
where confidentiality is a must. For the first time, Professional Camera
users can send documents and imagery between handsets and to personal
computers, confident their confidential information is encrypted
end-to-end."
