Fully designed and maintained by Atos, Hoox for business ensures complete protection of confidential and strategic data for all professionals in the private and public sector.

Built-in secure communication tools including a unique conference function

Communication tools are integrated into native applications. Intuitive and easy-to-use, the solution ensures complete professional efficiency through the secure use of all the essential features of a smartphone as well as additional functions tailored for collaborative use: multiple-user voice conferencing, group instant messaging and voicemail are all secured.

A communication infrastructure integrating an application store for ultimate security

The communication infrastructure of Hoox for business contains a private application store for each organization. This space allows to share business as well as mainstream applications, all of which are pre-tested by Atos. This ensures that organizations can rest assured that the applications used by their employees are secure.

A completely refreshed range of smartphones

New Android-based Hoox smartphones cover the uses of the most demanding users. Thanks to the end-to-end security of the solution (terminal, USB ports, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, communications, data, and applications) Hoox for business provides comprehensive protection against interception and intrusion, even if the smartphone is lost or stolen.

Hoox for business is secured and maintained by Atos’ European experts. It is available in ‘as a service’ mode and ‘on premise’ mode in order to provide total sovereignty of the organization’s data.
