Using a phone to read or communicate has become so standard that church people are expected to read scripture with their phones. Using mobile devices to transmit secure information.

Traditionally, secure communication was based on desktop systems; today, we need to pivot and learn how to apply mobile device management to leverage the cloud to provide safe and secure communications through mobile devices.

As a bonus, Harold provides a brilliant sidebar on another acronym: SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research). If you are trying to break into the federal market, this precis is just what you need.

The takeaway is that Monkton provides a platform for developers to deliver safe and secure code to people in our mobile world. This can mean a warfighter, a clinician, or even an emergency responder from FEMA.
