Winners selected by a CRN editorial panel, are based on a combination of critical factors including functionality; suitability to task; ease of use; innovation; and potential value to solution providers, their customers and the market in general.

"We congratulate the winners for their outstanding achievement in bringing innovative, easy to use mobile applications that boost enterprise productivity to market."

"This award demonstrates industry recognition of the importance of mobile threat prevention," said Manish Gupta, senior vice president of products at FireEye.
