Product Description

The Project Evros (Mobile Endpoint Management System) is a secure, always-on 3G wireless platform, providing IT managers with complete visibility of mobile computers 24/7. It is based on a 3G PCMCIA card equipped with an independent processor, OS and power supply.

Market Opportunity

Over 600,000 laptop thefts occur annually, totaling an estimated $720 million in hardware losses and $5.4 billion in theft of proprietary information. Safeware Insurance, 2003 CSI/FBI Computer Crime Survey reported that losses from laptop and mobile hardware theft increased 53% in 2006.

Demo Says

Corraling mobile corporate assets is a lot like herding cats. Just about the time you think you’ve got them all under control, one, then another, and another slips away. Lucent turns the advantage back to the IT organization, providing a simple way to track and manage mobile information assets. With incidence of stolen laptops containing critical, private information, this very smart card should find its way into every corporate laptop.
