Many security vendors were proclaiming viruses on mobile and smart phones would be the next major threat. In a specially developed issue jump, Sygate defied this view as only a theory while the actual threat to corporate networks still came from insecure laptops used by remote workers. This was the issue adopted in Germany. As the world’s largest IT trade show, CeBIT, kicked off, Hotwire ran media alerts on what Sygate believed would be the biggest issues at the show, establishing the company as a commentator on security issues. For example, Sygate predicted the real force in network security in the future will be vendor-independent standards.
