    Office-bound workers should assume that every keystroke they type is being recorded and intermittantly audited .

    At the very least, most companies - no matter what size -  scan internet page visits, length of time in programs, and what files employees save to their hard drives and shared server space. MP3’s, movies, pictures, and raw text files are tracked as a routine part of most backup and virus scan packages.

    However, the content of what occured over the corporate cell phone (beyond call numbers and times) was still a place of expected privacy.

    Until now.

    On May 10th, Retina-X Studios, LLC, announced their application “Mobile Spy”.

    It’s an activity monitoring software for Windows Mobile based smartphones. The software allows users to monitor SMS and call details online in real time.

    After being set up on the phone, it records all SMS text messages and call information and uploads that information to a web-based log that can be accessed by the company from anywhere online.

    Furthermore, Mobile Spy runs in total stealth mode  on the phone and is undetectable to the user.  In addition to its use as a corporate montoring tool, Mobile Spy’s press release gives other possible benefits of their package:

    • This new technology gives parents the ability to remotely monitor the family’s text and call activities by logging into a web site.
    • Cell phone customers can use the software as a record of all important communications.

    The product is available now at http://www.mobile-spy.com.
