IBM (NYSE:IBM) and Omlis, the emerging market leader for mobile
security technology today announced the release of their Secure
Enterprise Messenger (SEM) encryption technology on the IBM
SoftLayer platform. The downloadable Omlis Secure Enterprise
Messenger technology is now available on the IBM Cloud Marketplace
to app developers who employ IBM SoftLayer technologies for their
backend infrastructure, providing them with a highly secure
synchronous request response model of sensitive data exchange
between client and server applications over untrusted networks.
IBM’s acquisition of SoftLayer in 2013 for approximately $2
billion confirmed their ambition to lead the enterprise cloud
market space, taking advantage of the growing trend as large
organisations began outsourcing the management of their IT systems
while providing smaller organisations with cost effective, reliable
and scalable computing power. With Omlis Secure Enterprise
Messenger technology, IBM have a solution to suit a wide variety of
applications and customers across their Cloud Marketplace,
SoftLayer and BlueMix platforms.
Mobile malware remains a significant cybersecurity threat, with
1.12 percent of mobile devices monitored by IBM Trusteer in the
first half of 2015 exhibiting an active malware infection, on par
with PC infection rates.
The increase of Man-in-the-middle attacks, Trojans, Viruses,
Worms, Spyware and many others signifies the growing shift in
cybercriminal resource and attention to the mobile channel.
With protocols like SSL and TLS created before the ubiquitous
mobile channel, most mobile applications are vulnerable to at least
one of these known attacks especially as these applications do not
employ the appropriate level of security. The Omlis Secure
Enterprise Messenger encryption downloadable on the IBM Softlayer
ensures that every application has its own uniquely encrypted data
exchange channel, eliminating any opportunities for data
leakage.
The Omlis Secure Enterprise Messenger is built on the IBM
SoftLayer and marks a new era for secure communication
technologies, providing mobile application developers with
significantly higher data exchange security compared to
multi-tenanted SaaS.
“Omlis brings to market a high integrity encryption that is
totally secure, massively scalable, delivering the greatest
operational efficiency and offering the most compelling Return on
Investment (ROI) and engaging mobile commerce experience,” said
John Stuart, Chief Commercial Officer at Omlis.
Mr Stuart also added, “The highly differentiated Omlis
Architecture and portfolio of solutions are designed to completely
eliminate the opportunity for fraudulent transactions and are
unrivalled in the marketplace.”
The availability of the Omlis Secure Enterprise Messenger
encryption technology on IBM’s SoftLayer supports IBM’s offensive
strategy and priorities around the Internet of Things (IoT).
Through SoftlLyer, IBM have created a common platform where
developers are empowered to create useful applications for the
growing network of connected devices and the availability of the
Omlis Secure Enterprise Messenger is aimed to increase developer
confidence in the absolute security of any data exchanged to and
from their mobile applications.
The launch of the Omlis Secure Enterprise Messenger technology
in partnership with IBM is another milestone achieved by the
ambitious start up. In February 2015, the company announced
contracted revenues in excess of $31 million over the next five
years delivered via a growing network of 15 world class partners
including IBM, Stratus Technologies Inc. and Seric Systems.
