MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. and SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb, 28, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- 3LM, a provider of enterprise-grade security, management and remote access for mobile devices, and NQ Mobile, the international brand of NetQin Mobile In.

"Android mobile devices are catalyzing the BYOD phenomenon, and 3LM is leveraging its operating system-level security and management solution to ensure that Android devices sold by our handset partners are fully enterprise-ready," said Tom Moss, CEO at 3LM. "Our partnership with NQ Mobile is about working together to introduce the most complete solution for Android security by not only protecting corporate data and applications, but fighting back with automated cloud-based anti-virus, malware protection and more."

"Security threats to enterprise mobility are becoming more advanced every day, which is why NQ Mobile is taking the proactive approach to delivering real-time, cloud-based scanning to protect against mobile malware and viruses," said Omar Khan, co-CEO, NQ Mobile. "We're working with 3LM to integrate two best-in-class Android security and management technologies to provide our customers and carrier partners with unmatched security for enterprise-ready Android mobile devices."
