The security software PDA Defense was recently released and is now available for evaluation. Features include: MD5 hash password, select bit-wipe, Card encryption support, Enterprise-wide policy settings.
"PDA Defense Enterprise utilizes a feature set to completely lock-down handheld devices. Administrators can mandate password control including minimum length, alpha and numeric characters, and forced time-based password changes. Once PDA Defense Enterprise is installed on a device, users cannot disable the password protection without intervention by an administrator. In addition, PDA Defense Enterprise provides a comprehensive system of security and usability features including strong encryption, "brute-force" countermeasures, and hardware button password entry options. Administrators may make specific features mandatory or set them as user options."
I have posted a number of times about security software, and have spent quite some time learning about and even using a few security applications. PDA Defense Enterprise certainly looks quite potent. I wonder though, given the context... what's a Palm doing on a Pocket PC package!?
