MDM and BYOD and Mobile Security... Oh My!

 

Has your company has adopted mobile devices to help enhance communication, productivity, and availability of company resources. What should you consider in properly managing the security of your company data on these devices?

Many organizations now have either provided mobile devices (IPHONE, IPAD, ANDROID) or have allowed employee devices to access their corporate network and data processing resources. It is important that your company has a mobile device management (MDM) platform in place to enable proper management of the devices, and the data that resides on them. By controlling and protecting the data and configuration settings for all mobile devices in yourcorporate network, you can reduce support cost and business risk. Having the ability to perform tasks such as selective device data wipe, restricting app downloads, enforce security policy, and centralized management can instantly allow your company to gain better control of your corporate data and resources.
