Fundtech and Firethorn Combine Adding Mobile Connectivity

Fundtech and Firethorn Holdings announced they will work together to add mobile connectivity to Fundtech's CASHplus cash management system.

The effort will leverage Firethorn's mobile commerce platform to enable CASHplus users to view account details, transfer funds and initiate bill payments. Fundtech plans to fully integrate Firethorn's technology into the CASHplus system.

The Firethorn application also provides multiple levels of security, including PIN authorization and lockout, which disables access if the phone is lost or stolen, data encryption, and two-factor authentication and security via the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.
