Samsung has teamed up with Good
Technology, another mobile security and
device management solutions provider, t
launch the Good for Samsung Knox
service.
The service gives Samsung Knox users
access to Good's secure container
platform and app ecosystem. Good for
Samsung Knox creates a Good-secured
domain on a Samsung Knox-enabled
Android device where Good apps, Good-
secured apps, or custom apps secured b
the Good Dynamics secure mobility
platform resides. Good also provides
support for the Knox MDM APIs.
Good adds the integration of its services
also prevents rooting of corporate
Android devices, or rooted BYOD devices
from accessing corporate resources;
protects devices against Android malwar
that attempts to modify the kernel or
system; and secures corporate apps and
data at rest, in motion, in memory, and
between apps.
The two companies had first announced
their partnership back at MWC 2014.
"Good is now the first enterprise mobility
management (EMM) provider whose
secure container platform and app
ecosystem are integrated directly into th
Knox security stack. This joint solution
creates the enhanced secure solution for
enterprises and government agencies
looking to accelerate their Android
deployment to drive secure mobile
productivity," said Samsung in a
statement .
Injong Rhee, Executive Vice President of
Enterprise Business, IT and Mobile
Business at Samsung Electronics, added,
"The combination of Samsung and Good
represents the best solution for secure
enterprise Android productivity - no
matter whether corporate-liable, COPE
(Corporate Owned, Personally Enabled) o
BYOD(Bring Your Own Device) device
ownership models are being used."
In November last year, we saw Samsung
and BlackBerry teaming up for the
BlackBerry Enterprise Solution 12 in
Samsung Knox devices. The Canadian
smartphone maker said the service woul
arrive early this year.
