Asurion Corp, a leading provider of handset insurance and warranty management, has completed its purchase of mobile phone software firm Lumitrend. The acquisition will give Asurion access to Lumitrend’s CellBackup, which automatically protects contacts, ringtones and other content on a cell phone. “Increasingly, wireless carriers and subscribers have demonstrated a growing demand to protect not only their phone, but also the valuable data and content it holds,” Steve Pretre, general manager of Asurion Mobile Applications, said.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
