Symbian

Symbian is a software licensing company that develops and licenses Symbian OS, the market-leading open operating system for advanced, data-enabled mobile phones known as smartphones.

Symbian licenses Symbian OS to the world’s leading handset manufacturers and has built close co-operative business relationships with leading companies across the mobile industry.  During Q1 2007, 15.9 million Symbian smartphones were sold worldwide to over 250 major network operators, bringing the total number of Symbian smartphones shipped up to 31 March 2007 to 126 million.

Symbian chose TC TrustCenter to enable its TC Publisher ID for Symbian program for developers.  TC TrustCenter's outsourced PKI provides identity certificates to developers and signs code that has been tested by a third party.  The signed code ensures that the code came from the developer who signed it and that it has not been tampered with.

TC TrustCenter and Symbian are working together to provide even better support to developers when signing applications through TC Publisher ID for Symbian.

Symbian has its headquarters in London, United Kingdom, with offices in the United States, Europe, Israel and Asia (India, P.R. China, Korea and Japan).  The company can be reached at www.symbian.com or by phone at 1.650.551.0240.
