Armour hatches a partnership with a partnership with Samsung Electronics and Targus

Armour Comms has teamed up with Samsung Electronics and Targus to let enterprises extend the business use of smartphones.

Armour Mobile has been optimised to provide a desktop-like user experience on Samsung DeX devices with the Targus USB-C phone dock.

The idea is to provide enterprises with a solution to support secure homes working, on enterprise-level Samsung Galaxy Android smartphones, using Armour Mobile and a Targus DeX USB-C phone dock – as an alternative to laptops. Designed with the end-user in mind employees will be can work remotely with a desktop feel, with Armour Mobile providing fully integrated secure communications for voice, video, messaging, conferencing and associated data files.

The Targus DeX USB-C phone dock lets people power their phone and connect to an external HDMI display, peripherals such as mice and keyboards, an ethernet cable and an SD card, and work on their Galaxy smartphone as though on a laptop. Armour Mobile provides secure handling of mobile communications ensuring that business information within the app is kept securely, and data privacy regulations such as GDPR are maintained.

Amour director David Holman said: “The last year has seen a shift in how and where employees work. As organisations plan what the working environment of the future will look like, Armour is committed to working with partners such as Samsung and Targus to provide a flexible way for employees and teams to collaborate securely, how and where they want.”
