Terms of the acquisition are undisclosed.The acquisition of Rover Apps will allow Kaseya to provide security for mobile BYOD users using a secure containerized approach. MSPs and enterprises can now secure their corporate information on mobile devices without affecting users’ personal data. Capabilities of the Rover Apps solution include:

· Secure access to corporate applications, business email and document editing on mobile devices without any risk of corporate data leaks.

· Isolation of business data from personal data on the mobile device.

· Central management and control of users, policies and data access.

· Central control of corporate data and the ability to wipe it clean on users’ devices, without affecting their personal data.

And users do not want to give IT departments the ability to control and destroy personal information on the devices they own. The containerized approach of our solution perfectly satisfies the needs of both constituents.”

The Rover Apps solution is available in two versions on a mobile device:

· Secure Web Browser for secure access to corporate intranets and web apps.
