"Mobile device management developer Mformation Technologies will in the coming months announce partnerships with encryption, VPN, and anti-virus vendors to offer updates and management of their software clients from its server...
Given its background as a vendor of technology to carriers, it is no surprise that Mformation sees even enterprise MDM as something to be delivered by them as a service. Other vendors, such as HP with its Bitfone acquisition and now Microsoft with its recently launched MDM server, see a market for technology sold directly into the corporate end user for a DIY approach.
As for its expanding ambitions in terms of what it can manage, Mformation's thinking resonates with what other players such as BigFix and Lumension (formerly PatchLink) have been doing for some time."
