| VeriSign Launches VeriSign Backup Plus VeriSign has announced VeriSign Backup Plus, which instantly and automatically backs up and restores personal data on mobile phones. Cincinnati Bell will be the first carrier in the world offering the hosted, self-care service. VeriSign is committed to introducing new services and features that elevate the mobile experience. VeriSign Backup Plus will initially feature instant, over-the-air back up of contacts in mobile phone address books, giving consumers peace-of-mind from knowing their data is backed upon entry and easily retrievable if phones are lost, stolen or damaged. Later this year, the service will back up mobile calendars, pictures and video and audio content. Studies have shown that 25 percent of mobile phones are lost each year and most consumers change phones every 12 months. Yet, despite this, most people don't back up their mobile phone data. By leveraging VeriSign's intelligent infrastructure, carriers, portals, media and consumer goods companies and other network-savvy businesses can bring services to market more quickly while reducing risk, lowering costs and improving the customer experience. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
