Warden for Windows Mobile by for Blackberry by SplashData
by Michael E. Callahan aka Dr. File Finder
Note: Since by definition "smartphones" are phones that are also PDA's, the software reviewed here should work with personal digital assistants that are not "smartphones". Check the operating system because we'll be reviewing software for Pocket PC, Windows Mobile, Palm, and BlackBerry devices. -- Editor
If you have a Treo smartphone and you'd like to beef up the security, then you'll want to take a good look at Warden Security from iambic, Inc. Warden is the real deal when it comes to protecting you, and your data, in every way. Let's face it, more and more users, myself included, are carrying more data on their smartphones. What happens if you lose your phone. Well, with Warden on the job you won't have to worry because it has some
cool
features. For one, you can remotely encrypt all the data on your
phone. You can also do this locally, but if your phone is lost being
able to do it remotely is a life saver. In addition, you can also
delete data on your device from a remote location. In testing it
out I found that Warden can be configured to make your device
totally secure without constantly bugging you. I think that's an
important feature because often if something bothers people they'll
simply bypass it and that isn't the point. Another one of my favorite
features is really kind of James Bond in nature. Say you've lost your
phone and one of your friends calls you, not knowing that you don't have
your phone? Well, Warden has a cool option to actually route all
the calls to your mobile device to voice mail without the phone
even ringing. Slick! Your data is protected on a daily basis, but if
you should lose your Treo device you have ways to eliminate the
possibility of someone getting at your data. So, if you have a
Treo smartphone this is a product you need to look at. A
very impressive security system, I recommend it.
