Topic: What's all this smartphone security
stuff, anyhow?
An executive in your organisation demands to use his or her
favourite smartphone to access enterprise email, what are your next
steps?
This presentation will discuss a range of topics, including:
- How smartphone security is different to traditional laptop and
desktop security - it's all about access, usability and value for
money.
- Ways to abuse a smartphone.
- Technologies available for securing a smartphone and,
importantly, what technologies are unavailable.
- How to prevent information getting to smartphones.
Speaker: Greg Colla
Greg's vision is to provide the smartphone market with the
capabilities to balance the security needs of the organisation with
the useability requirements of staff.
In 2005, Greg Colla founded janusNET together with Neville
Jones. With broad experience in Internet messaging, information
security and product development, Greg has applied his knowledge to
become a specialist in providing user friendly email security
solutions.
Prior to founding janusNET, Greg consulted to the Australian
government providing expertise for government email security
policy, and co-authored the Email Protective Marking standard for
the Australian government. The outcomes were a simplification of
email security policy for all government staff, increased security
awareness, increased security of government information, as well as
increased security for agency and vendor interoperation.
Over the last 20 years, Greg has worked with leading
multinational product development organisations, including
Baltimore Technologies, ResMed and Dragerwerk Medizintechnik,

with his teams to improve their work practices and increase their
