DIALOGS offers “smartMan”, an MDM solution that Sophos says is already at the core of Sophos Mobile Control and will form the basis for MDM and mobile management solutions that will be integrated into the Sophos Unified Threat Management suite.

According to Sophos, the combination of Sophos’ encryption and data protection capabilities with DIALOGS’ SaaS-based and on-premises mobile management technology will enable secure collaboration from any location.

Additionally, DIALOGS offers mobile communication services for mobile messaging and location-based services, which Sophos will continue to support.
