Your Business’ Mobile Data Needs Protection Too

Your Business’ Mobile Data Needs Protection Too

Having your team connected through mobile, especially with access to collaboration and communication tools, is the new normal in business. Many organizations take advantage of the ubiquity of smartphones and either provide mobile devices to their staff or utilize the built-in options on many of today’s newest mobile OSs that allow them to put an encrypted work profile on; effectively adding mobility to your business without a huge capital investment. Regardless of what option you choose, you need to have management software in place if you are going to trust your employees to have access to company information outside of the office. 

There are horror stories of people losing their phones and it resulting in data breaches for businesses. The massive cost in terms of money and reputation cannot be understated and the situation needs to be addressed. The solution is to provide your IT administrators access to mobile device management (MDM), a tool that is a must-have for any business that provides smartphones or has a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) strategy in place.

What is Mobile Device Management?

Mobile Device Management (MDM) is a solution that allows organizations to control and secure mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets. MDM software provides a centralized platform for IT administrators to manage and monitor devices remotely, ensuring they comply with company policies and protect sensitive data. It comes with several important features that include:

  • Centralized management - A central dashboard in which administrators can control the business profiles.
  • Security - Many different security features including encryption, password management, passcode enforcement, remote access/lock/wipe, and robust malware protection.
  • App management - You can whitelist/blacklist apps, control distribution and apply crucial software updates.
  • Tracking - MDM offers visibility into device location, the status of the mobile device, and usage reports.
  • Policy enforcement - If you are a business that works in a field with strict compliance standards, an MDM platform can ensure regulations are abided by.
  • Support - Many comprehensive MDM platforms, especially those that are managed by us, offer access to profile and platform support. 

If you want to add mobility to your business, you need to do what you can to protect your business from mobile theft or loss, unauthorized access, and other issues that can complicate your operations. 

If you would like to learn more about the best practices for adding additional mobility to your business’ IT, or just to talk about protecting your business’ technology in general, give the IT professionals at Indevtech a call at (808) 529-4605.
