What's New in Government-Security Solutions for Apple Products

For those of you who reside in the overlapping planes of Public Safety and Apple users/enthusiasts, today is your lucky day.  Precise Biometrics and Thursby Software announced a new hardware/software security bundle this week designed to provide secure applications on your enterprise or personal iPhones and iPads.

The efforts to push Public Safety communications into the next generation have been paying off with small pieces added almost weekly now to the larger puzzle.  The key is to balance the innovation and fast-moving technological world with the security requirements necessary for PS users.  The Tactivo smart case from Precise Biometrics authenticates via a smart card or fingerprint (or both, depending on agency policies).  This bundled with secure browsing software from Thursby (who specialize in Apple integration) creates a wonderful new solution to bring information to the fingertips of the First Responder community.
