Modern mobile phones are effectively small computers and face the same issues and threats as workstations and laptops. Phones are one of the most important tools for the productivity of modern enterprises, and they should be managed and protected accordingly.

How to ensure that your mobile workforce stays connected, your mobile assets are managed and controlled, your business assets are protected, and your IT administrative costs are minimized?

What's the real cost of a lost laptop, PC, PDA or smart phone? How much private information could be stolen? How many trade secrets? How much will you have to spend to restore your customers' privacy? Not to mention their trust - or your reputation?

Did you know that there are already over 300 different mobile malware and viruses around? Did you know that mobile malware can cause false billing, disclose stored information, and delete, corrupt, or prohibit use of the phone? Did you know that several percent of all MMS traffic of many operators is caused by viruses, and typically several percent of smartphone users have got one.

F-Secure, Nokia, and Check Point will present a summary of today's challenges and a solution that combines all these:

• Nokia Intellisync Mobile Suite for secure over-the-air management of the mobile devices
• F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus for protecting the mobile devices against mobile malware
• Pointsec Mobile from Check Point for encrypting the confidential information stored on the mobile device
