Mobile Device Management (MDM)
Mobile Device Management (MDM) has a natural place in our infrastructure nowadays due to the nature of technology and improvements in connectivity. First and foremost, MDM ensures that we as employers are in full control of our data and systems, even when we allow our colleagues access via their preferred device—even their private devices. Through use of an MDM solution, it is possible to handle any situation or problem that may arise due to lost or stolen personal devices containing sensitive corporate data. An MDM solution allows us to enforce security policies on mobile devices seamlessly, and adds another layer to our company’s security.
By integrating mobile device management with identity and access management through IDM365, device access can be controlled using the same process used for traditional systems. Both corporate owned and personal (BYOD) devices can be managed seamlessly and scaled quickly to meet the growing number of different devices and users. IDM365 gives you one platform to control and secure your data and systems, for all the users, not matter what devices they prefer. Our MDM module can help you reduce the cost of supporting mobile workers while maintaining control over all mobile devices.
