JOENSUU, Finland, Sept. 5, 2013 /PRN=KYODO JBN/ --

    New feature makes Blancco Mobile the first complete solution for mobile

processing, giving organizations more choices for managing mobile data security

    Smartphones already outsell desktops by more than 5 to 1, and smartphone

and tablet sales are expected to represent 95% of the entire phone and personal

computer market by 2016.* In the face of this skyrocketing growth, Blancco

[http://www.blancco.com ] announced today that it is equipping its Blancco

Mobile [http://www.blancco.com/en/products/total-data-erasure/mobile ] data

erasure solution for mobile devices with a new feature to give organizations an

additional choice for managing mobile data security.

    Blancco Mobile now includes a rapid factory resetting option

[http://www.blancco.com/mobile-reset-and-report ] in addition to full data

erasure, making it the first complete solution for mobile processing. The

solution works for Android, iOS, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile and Nokia Symbian

devices.

    "Mobile device processors, brokers and service providers need a fast and

efficient way to reset smartphones and tablets so that chances of a device

reaching the secondhand market with sensitive business or personal data are

minimized," said Kim Vaisanen, CEO and Co-Founder of Blancco. "While we

recommend Blancco Mobile

[http://www.blancco.com/en/products/total-data-erasure/mobile ]'s full data

erasure for complete security and regulatory compliance, the new 'Reset and

Report' feature is ideal for quickly resetting large volumes of devices-up to

20 at a time-with minimal resources and a report as proof."

    The "Reset and Report" feature generates a report after resetting,

confirming that the process was completed. The new feature is compatible with

the Blancco Management Console, which automatically receives the reset or

erasure reports.
