Apple's $365 million buy of security company AuthenTec could give the iPhone and iPad an edge. Samsung recently penned a deal with AuthenTec for its mobile VPN technology.
Authentec offers a variety of security-themed products, from embedded security toolkits to smart sensors for PCs and fingerprint sensor technology. Earlier this month, Samsung, Apple's primary rival, chose Authentec's QuickSec virtual private network security to use in its Android smartphones and tablets.
The VPN "enhances the security of multiple new Android smartphones and tablets, providing users peace of mind that they can quickly and securely connect to their networks and the cloud," Authentec said in a July 16 statement, announcing the agreement with Samsung.
