Posted on: Monday, 15 August 2005, 09:00 CDT

VIENNA, Va., Aug 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloakware Inc., the world's leading developer of solutions for protecting software and systems from unauthorized use and piracy, today announced that CoreMedia, a global provider of trusted mobile DRM technology, has chosen Cloakware to enhance the security of its Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) DRM products. Under the agreement, CoreMedia will use the Cloakware Security Suite to ensure that its OMA DRM products adhere to today's stringent Robustness Rules for protecting applications from tampering and piracy.

"CoreMedia is setting the pace for balancing consumer experience with security concerns," says Dr. Willms Buhse, Director Products & Marketing. "Our strategic relationship with Cloakware is integral to CoreMedia's security initiatives and conformance with Robustness Rules as defined by the CMLA (Content Management License Administrator)."

"Cloakware solutions enable device OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) and ODMs (original design manufacturers) to secure the implementation of a broad range of DRM standards," said Alec Main, Chief Technology Officer at Cloakware. "With this strategic relationship in place, CoreMedia can ensure that their OMA DRM solutions adhere to Robustness Rules and provide the best commercial protection available."

Cloakware is the leading provider of robustness solutions for applications and devices, including PCs, portable devices, mobile phones, music players and set top boxes.

The company also provides robust components in support of Windows Vista (Longhorn).

Cloakware solutions are a quick and easy way to conform to the rules required by these content handling licenses.
