The FINANCIAL -- Verizon Enterprise Solutions, Motorola
Mobility Inc. and BoxTone are collaborating to develop a comprehensive
mobile solution to help satisfy the unique security, reliability and
usability requirements of the health care industry.
According to Motorola
Mobility, by providing health care practitioners with secure mobile devices and apps, patient care can be improved through the sharing of clinical data in near-real time to help speed decision making and control costs.
The jointly created offering leverages BoxTone’s automated Enterprise Mobility Management software platform on select Motorola devices, such as the DROID RAZR and DROID RAZR MAXX smartphones, as well as DROID XYBOARD 10.1 and 8.2 tablets, all of which tap the power of the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE network. Health care organizations can now reliably deploy Android-based mobile devices and apps that are designed to help them meet strict compliance requirements, including privacy measures outlined in the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act of 1996.
This comprehensive solution from three leaders in mobile health proactively addresses mobile security and privacy by incorporating a new layer of data protection with automated mobile device and application management, thereby helping to enable widespread Android adoption in health care. Motorola Mobility and BoxTone are both Verizon Business Solutions Alliance partners.
Motorola Mobility smartphones are well-suited for health care environments, incorporating coatings of water-repellent nanoparticles, brilliant displays using Corning Gorilla Glass for scratch-resistance and innovative materials for strength such as KEVLAR® fiber for DROID RAZR and DROID RAZR MAXX. Easy to slip into a lab coat pocket, the smartphones and tablets also feature pre-loaded Citrix software for access to electronic medical records, 3LM software for embedded device security and the BoxTone EMM software for automated life-cycle management.
BoxTone’s automated EMM platform provides high levels of service and security at a low cost and risk for health care organizations. BoxTone’s full lifecycle EMM platform incorporates enterprise-grade mobile device management for automated provisioning, security configuration, compliance monitoring and enforcement, change management, and retirement. It also includes mobile support management for remote service desk support through real-time views into mobile status, automated diagnostics, embedded knowledgebase and click-to-fix, as well as mobile operations management for continuous real-time service monitoring, proactive alerting and system tuning.
