About PGP Mobile

Built on proven encryption and key management services, PGP Mobile provides flexible encryption to meet the data protection and sharing needs of a mobile enterprise. With PGP Mobile, entire data volumes, archives, directories, or individual files can be encrypted.
Ready for the mobile enterprise, PGP Mobile can be deployed over-the-air, leveraging PGP Universal Server's trusted key management and provisioning services to reduce administrator setup time. When needed, PGP Mobile encrypted data can easily be shared with Windows users, even those without encryption software.
PGP Mobile is a PGP Encryption Platform-enabled application. The PGP Encryption Platform provides a strategic enterprise encryption framework for shared user management, policy, and provisioning, automated across multiple, integrated encryption applications. As a PGP Encryption Platform-enabled application, PGP Mobile is managed with PGP Universal Server to manage existing policies, users, keys, and configurations, expediting deployment and policy enforcement.
PGP Mobile protects your data by encrypting individual files, entire data volumes, archives, or directories. Use PGP Mobile to put any combination of files and folders into an encrypted, compressed package for easy distribution or backup. Finally, use PGP Mobile to shred (securely delete) sensitive files—so that no one can retrieve them.
