CellTrust CEO Sean Moshir Appointed to SCIPP International Advisory Board
Moshir Lends IT Security and Mobile Wireless Industry Expertise to Information Security Training and Certification Organization
Scottsdale, Ariz. – November 29, 2007 – IT security training and certification organization SCIPP International (www.scippinternational.org) today announced the appointment of CellTrust CEO Sean Moshir to its advisory board. SCIPP International brings Moshir on board at an instrumental time given today’s burgeoning mobile-wireless market with U.S. wireless data service revenues growing 9.4 percent to $6.4B in Q3 2007. Moshir joins an esteemed international team of information security and business leaders from across industry disciplines that has helped form and execute SCIPP’s successful security awareness and training programs.
As CEO and chairman of CellTrust Corporation (www.celltrust.com), Moshir focuses his time on strategic network, information security, and the Company’s Secure Mobile Information Management (SMIM) software and services offerings, which support today’s global demand for comprehensive “business-to-business-to-customer” mobile marketing and business process optimization solutions. Moshir pioneered security patch and vulnerability management, making an effortful and impressive impact on the IT security industry and founded PatchLink, now Lumension Security, in 1991. In the early nineties, he also designed and developed many Internet Security applications as well as co-developed one of the very first network anti-virus VAPs for Central Point Software, which was eventually acquired by Symantec Corporation (www.symantec.com).
According to Moshir, “Security awareness is extremely important. However, Internet security can only be achieved when end users are trained properly. SCIPP’s mission, to solve security problems at the human level, runs parallel with CellTrust’s intent to promote mobile security while enhancing the experience of mobile phone end users. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to expanding the mobile Internet security knowledge of those training and certifying with SCIPP.”
SCIPP International Founder Winn Schwartau adds, “Sean’s versatile IT security, mobile-wireless and business expertise will serve our board and mission well.”
Recently, Moshir presented alongside business and technology leaders from Sun Microsystems, Trend Micro and Investors Bank & Trust on the topics of Mobile Data Protection and Mobile Identity at the Yankee Group-sponsored Mobile Internet World 2007. In 2005, Moshir was among 16 senior security industry executives worldwide from companies such as BEA Systems and Tipping Point to receive the “Shaping Info Security 2005 Award.”
