DDH Software announced a major update to its HanDBase relational database application for Access OS (Palm OS/Treo), Windows Mobile Classic and Professional (Pocket PC), Windows Mobile Standard (Smartphone), BlackBerry, and Symbian S60 devices. Version 4.0 includes a host of new synchronization features, a deeper level of security, and a myriad of user interface and database design enhancements.

The new version includes a wide range of new enhancements, including the ability to synchronize databases stored on a memory card. HanDBase also now includes a “Smart Date” filter that enables users to view data in ranges such as “This Week,” and “Next x Days.” With data security risks such as identity theft and business intelligence loss, the security of mobile data is of utmost importance. In addition to 128 bit Safer-SK encryption, HanDBase 4.0 now offers an inactivity auto-close feature and encryption password caching, with HanDBase optionally remembering and recalling passwords for subsequent saves/closes of the database.
