Vision

Salt Group envisages a world where the mobile handset is a portal to a vast range of high value “immediate” services, complementing information rich Internet based services that will gradually lose the immediacy enjoyed today due largely to information overload in email and chat style services.

We believe that “purposed” mobile handset based portals, accessed via application based PINs, will emerge to support those time critical needs which will include identity authentication for other channels, urgent messaging, payments authentication, payment initiation, instruction submission and authorisation, and alert and reminder processing.

Portals will emerge in banking, airlines, travel, gaming and other industries benefiting form immediacy of trusted communications. Portals will need to be independent of network provider and handset manufacturer and provide services navigationally independent from “recreational” and business static seen in SMS, message services and in fact voice services.

Underpinning these portals is a need for a secure network and application infrastructure, much as is required today in an internet environment. Salt Group’s Secure Mobile Application Infrastructure is our entry level product to support this development.

Salt Secure Mobile Application Infrastructure

Salt Group has developed advanced mobile based infrastructure and applications to support the electronic delivery of services to the consumer market.

The focus of our work to date is in contemporary Java™ or .Net based product development with network connectivity based on WAP or SMS services invoked at the application level.

We have a well developed application deployment and activation model which is suited to the high security demands of high assurance transactions as seen in banking, airline, gaming and broking applications.

Salt Group has developed and supports a range of host side and handset development toolkits that simplify the build and deployment of handset applications and complementary host based applications. As a result we can develop and deploy applications quickly and robustly.

Salt Group’s core business focus of secure applications deployment and activation flows through to our mobile application development program, with sophisticated cryptographic services and management regimes being fully available to application systems.
