GadgetTrak will have a booth at MacWorld again this year (Booth #3734) , which is turning out to be a historical event as it appears to be the last MacWorld where Apple will be participating, so we are excited to be part of it. MacWorld has been an exciting even for GadgetTrak, last year we had a lot of folks visit our booth and provide feedback regarding the products we offer and is this feedback that drives our development and innovation, so we are very excited to attend again this year and meet our customers and partners. GadgetTrak’s MacTrak has also been selected for several features including the First Looks program, as well as the pre-show product showcase and is also candidate for Best of Show.

GadgetTrak Founder & CTO Ken Westin will be presenting Monday August 25th to the Mobile Portland Group:

Today mobile devices know where we are, who we talk to, how much money we have in the bank and has access to corporate data, personal photos and other sensitive information.

Data and identity theft due to mobile phone theft and vulnerabilities are rising concerns. However, with both businesses and developers mobile security usually takes a back seat to features, convenience and time-to-market.

Ken Westin, the Founder and CTO of GadgetTrak, will lead a spirited discussion touching on mobile security and privacy.
