Sean Moshir envisions a world where the mobile device will be crucial to validating identity and passionately advocates CellTrust?s core mission to provide an intelligent environment for the trusted and convenient exchange of relevant, often highly confidential, high-risk and personal data via the mobile device.
Over the last two decades, Moshir has led several industry changing technology initiatives including the creation of ManageWare, the world's first network management language, which he then sold to IBM. In the early nineties, he co-developed one of the very first network anti-virus VAPs for Central Point Software, which was eventually acquired by Symantec Corporation. Moshir then created sophisticated network tools called NetBasic which he licensed and then sold to Novell. In 2001, Moshir sold IT management provider Altiris (now Symantec) a system management software program designed for UNIX/Linux operating systems. Just a few years later in 2004, Moshir's PatchLink Update™ was licensed to Novell.
