Samsung Joins Forces with IBM to Help Centralize Mobile Security for Enterprises

“Samsung Knox has been consistently recognized as the industry’s  leading mobile device security platform* due to our comprehensive approach to protecting devices at the hardware and software levels. Working with IBM, we are excited to extend the power of the platform to SOCs to address the increasingly complex threats organizations are facing today,” said Brad Haczynski, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Mobile B2B, Samsung Electronics America.

“More than ever before, disconnected security tooling is one of the biggest challenges facing security professionals. We designed the IBM QRadar Suite to unify and accelerate the security analyst experience across the full threat detection, investigation and response lifecycle. Our collaboration with Samsung to integrate Knox capability will help deliver powerful visibility into Galaxy mobile endpoints for security professionals,” stated Denny O’Brien, Director, Product Management, Cloud and Service Provider Security, IBM.

The integrated solution will initially be available for enterprises using IBM QRadar Suite with Knox Suite (Secured by Knox) for their Samsung Galaxy mobile devices later this year.
