The deal adds strategic mobile management and security capabilities to Kocho’s growing service portfolio, allowing customers of both organisations to benefit from an end-to-end range of best-in-class services that will further accelerate their digital transformation programmes.
Mobliciti‘s range of mobile threat detection services allow customers to defend against the rising number of cyber threats targeted at mobile and personal devices, ensuring that they can adopt new flexible working practices without risk of attack. Its mobile device management capabilities allow companies to find the right-fit for their mobile estates, eradicating overspend on both hardware and licenses.
Mobliciti’s mobile security expertise complements and enhances Kocho’s existing services capabilities, which have been designed to enable mid-size and enterprise organisations to transform their business models through the adoption and round-the-clock management of cyber security, identity management and cloud-based services.

This will enable us to add even more value to our customers, as well as deliver growth by opening up new markets.”, Lekerman continued.

Just as importantly, its steadfast focus on being a great place to work, where people collaborate and are celebrated for their contribution, really chimes with our own values and provides a solid foundation for future growth.”, Taylor continued.
Mobliciti’s service offering spans mobile device and network management, unified endpoint management, mobile threat defence, identity and multi-factor authentication, data protection, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), cloud key management, AI-enabled wireless networking and security, secure home office solutions and a range of collaboration services.
