The Good-secured app enables MindLink to offer highly secure mobile collaboration communications to Good Technology customers using Microsoft Lync and Skype for Business.

"This solution will benefit companies with a BYOD or CYOD strategy and a highly mobile workforce in particular," says Annekathrin Häse, Chief Marketing Officer, MindLink Software. "This collaboration also complements MindLink's existing strategic partnership with BlackBerry, bringing the best functionality to our users without compromising on security."

MindLink for Good is a chat application built specifically for Enterprise use with added security and compliance functionalities offering Presence, Instant Messaging and persistent Group Chat. MindLink for Good integrates with email, social channels and corporate portals including SharePoint. It also allows users to collaborate with #Hashtags, @Mentions, Critical Alerts and Search features, whilst routing all traffic securely via the Good Network Operations Centre, eliminating the need for a VPN or Lync Edge and Mobility services. The application is built to run in the Good Dynamics® container that controls access to the application and prevents data loss.

"The ability to share ideas and collaborate on projects is fundamental to an organisation's success," continues Häse.

By partnering with Good, MindLink can bring a new, secure dimension to how sensitive information is discussed by teams whether they are office-based or not."
