VeliQ offers a fully featured mPaaS solution that makes smartphone and tablet management easy and scalable by providing cloud-based mobile device management, mobile content management, mobile application management, mobile security and risk management, back-end integration and more. VeliQ’s platform allows all mobile devices to be controlled and managed throughout their life cycle from a single web portal, offers much lower total cost of ownership per device as well as a quick return on investment.


“Employees are bringing their own devices to the workplace. Given this reality, it is incumbent upon IT organizations to find a solution that ensures the security of these devices, and the enterprise information contained therein,” said Alex Bausch, founder and CEO at VeliQ. “Webroot’s security intelligence and secure browsing capabilities enable our leading mPaaS solution to meet and exceed that need, while also enhancing overall customer value and maintaining a single point of contact.”


Through this new alliance, mPaaS can now automatically scan applications and files, blocking threats before they have a chance to compromise the device. Also included is a secure web browser, which scans URLs to block phishing attempts and other malicious Web content, and URL filtering that adds many new threat protection categories, including spyware, malware and phishing sites along with additional categories that will provide a more granular list of the types of websites that can be controlled. The partnership provides enterprise-wide protection for data stored on Android devices, offering mobile users a seamless and secure experience.


“VeliQ continuously evaluates best-of-breed technologies to offer with our mobility Platform-as-a-Service. By doing so, users of our mPaaS solution can rest assured that they will always have the latest best-of-breed mobile technologies at their disposal,” added Bausch.
