Hypori_FinDEVr2015_logoHypori’s virtual mobile infrastructure platform—VMI—shields enterprises from the risks of BYOD while providing a rich, responsive end-user experience, and a more secure, cost-effective, compliant solution for any organization. The highly scalable and flexible infrastructure helps commercial and public sector organizations bridge the gap between mobile productivity and mobile security.

Hypori’s platform can deliver any unmodified mobile application as a secure service on iOS and Android devices. It’s the only approved solution for accessing mobile apps on the NSA’s Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSFC) and can enable access to any mobile app as the ACE platform takes responsibility for all Common Criteria-mandated security capabilities, absolving the mobile app of these requirements. Hypori’s Virtual Mobile Infrastructure (VMI) platform allows enterprises to keep data and applications in the data center, while providing end-users with a secure and rich, mobile-first experience.

VISA Corp. and Hypori recently demonstrated a Point of Sale as a Service solution leveraging the ACE Platform at FinovateFall in New York City, including a remote access to Bluetooth PoS peripherals.

Key takeaways:

  • Hypori’s architecture for virtual mobile infrastructure
  • VISA case study for leveraging Hypori’s platform for securing mobile point-of-sale terminals
  • Overview of how Hypori’s platform can be used to secure other banking and finance applications on mobile devices

Hypori Launches Android Cloud Environment with Remote Bluetooth Extension

Hypori Launches Android Cloud Environment with Remote Bluetooth Extension

HyporiThis post is part of our live coverage of FinovateFall 2015.

Making their way to the stage next is the team from Hypori.

In conjunction with a Fortune 100 financial services company, Hypori has added support for remote access to Bluetooth peripherals such as barcode scanners, card readers, and receipt printers. The use case is point of sale (POS), and the goal is to improve security for credit-card transactions from mobile devices by moving the POS app off the mobile end-point to a locked-down, instrumented operating system running in a secure data center: POS as a Service. Hypori is demonstrating a mobile credit-card transaction leveraging remote Bluetooth peripherals for the first time on the Finovate stage.

Hypori Introduces Seamless App Mode in Latest ACE Product Suite Release

Hypori Introduces Seamless App Mode in Latest ACE Product Suite Release

Hypori_homepage_July2015

With version 3.1 announced this week, virtual mobile infrastructure innovator Hypori is unveiling the new “Seamless app” mode of its Android Cloud Environment (ACE). The technology gives users secure, on-demand access to hosted Android apps, while allowing icon shortcuts to be presented as they ordinarily would be. This ensures that users of other platforms and operating systems remain in a familiar environment.

“Users enjoy the same look and feel they are accustomed to and see only the hosted apps, regardless of the OS they have chosen,” says Brian Vetter, Hypori CTO. He called the technology “another example of our dedication to user experience.”

“We want to make it easy for any IT admin to dynamically provision seamless apps to users,” added company CEO Justin Marston.

See Hypori’s ACE Product Suite 3.1 interface in the video below.

Seamless apps have the same security reliabilities as a full virtual device, including two-factor authentication, FIPS compliant TLS 1.2 encryption, and no data-at-rest on the end point. The platform also keeps the apps and its back-end services protected by keeping everything behind the enterprise network’s firewall.

Developed in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Defense, Hypori’s Virtual Mobile Infrastructure helps enterprises accommodate mobile devices and BYOD policies by separating physical devices from potentially sensitive apps and data. The platform gives users access from their iPhone, iPad, or Android mobile device to a secure, virtual mobile device in the cloud.

Hypori raised more than $7 million early this year, and more than $6 million in March, for a total capital of more than $14 million. In April 2015, Hypori announced that its ACE Client had been approved for use with classified data by the National Security Agency (NSA). In May, Hypori earned the 2015 Mobility Tech Zone Product of the Year Award from TMC, and in June, the company announced that its VMI supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

The Austin, Texas-based company formerly known as DroidCloud was founded in 2012. Hypori will demo its technology live in New York at FinovateFall 2015. Early-bird savings are still available, so visit our registration section today.
