PDA Defense Professional
SureWave Mobile Defense Professional (formerly branded PDA Defense Professional) provides additional layers of security to the standard encryption, password and port-locking measures in our basic version.
SureWave Mobile Defense Professional is available for the following platforms:
- Palm OS® 3.5.x / 4.x / 5.x
- Pocket PC 2002 / WM 2003 / WM 2003 SE

PDA Defense Professional is the most comprehensive security solution for handhelds running the Pocket PC operating system and the Palm OS. It uses a multi-tiered system of security:
- 128-bit Blowfish encryption protects any information stored on a device or on external memory cards. Unlike other solutions, PDA Defense encryption is not limited to dedicated volumes.
- The "Bomb" feature bit-wipes all RAM databases without a user prompt when the maximum number of unlock attempts is exceeded.
- A dedicated "safe folder" provides user-transparent encryption and decryption on Pocket PC.
- Decryption-on-demand maximizes performance by decrypting databases only when they are needed.
- Optional hardware button password entry dramatically speeds up password entry time.
