Hypori, which launched in 2011 as DroidCloud Inc., operated in stealth mode for three years. In August 2014, it unveiled its virtual mobile infrastructure platform at the Federal Mobility Summit event in Washington D.C.
The platform is designed to connect Android and Apple devices to central virtualized infrastructures, according to a company news release.
Marston was previously the founder and CEO of BlueSpace Software Corp., which dealt with secure virtualization in the defense sector.

In July 2014, Hypori reported raising $500,000 of a planned $7.2 million financing from a lone investor, according to an SEC filing.
