Visto has announced its support of corporate email functionality for the Apple iPhone. Thanks to Visto, iPhone users can enjoy secure mobile access to current and legacy versions of both Microsoft Exchange and IBM (News - Alert) Lotus Domino corporate messaging platforms.  In addition to enabling access that is easy to implement and administer, Visto will alleviate IT concerns regarding security and reliability.

 

“The iPhone (News - Alert) and other devices to follow will continue to accelerate demand for secure mobile access to corporate data including email, contacts, calendar, and other important information sources,” said Brian Bogosian, president, chairman and CEO of Visto in a.

 

Bogosian believes the unique attributes of the iPhone will generate incremental demand for smart devices and will raise the bar for other phone manufacturers to meet and exceed any user experience enhancements that Apple (News - Alert) has made.

 

“To be useful to business users, it must easily and securely provide access to corporate email — and that’s where Visto adds value and functionality for end users as they consider the iPhone over BlackBerry (News - Alert), Symbian, or Windows Mobile devices as their single converged device to support both their personal and business needs,” he explained.

 

Secure and easy-to-use mobile access will directly be offered by Visto Mobile to corporate and personal email for the iPhone in the United States.  Using end-to-end security, Visto Mobile secures personal information of iPhone users.  IT departments can now encrypt and protect sensitive corporate data without making any changes to their existing security infrastructure.
