Simplify Mobile Management. Strengthen Security.

Managed mobility solutions help organizations securely manage mobile devices, users, applications, and data across their workforce. These services can include device provisioning, security policies, application management, remote support, compliance controls, expense management and lifecycle management. A managed approach allows businesses to provide employees with flexible mobile access while maintaining visibility and control over corporate technology.

Mobile device management (MDM) is a technology and set of processes used to manage and secure smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices. MDM enables IT teams to enforce security policies, configure devices, deploy applications, control access, remotely lock or wipe devices, and monitor device compliance. It is a foundational component of an effective enterprise mobility strategy.

Mobile management is the broader practice of managing an organization’s mobile technology environment, including devices, applications, users, security, connectivity, and data. Mobile device management focuses specifically on controlling and securing the devices themselves. A comprehensive managed mobility program typically incorporates MDM along with application, identity, security, and lifecycle management.

As employees increasingly work from different locations and use mobile devices to access business resources, managing those devices securely can become complex. Managed mobility solutions provide centralized control and visibility while helping IT teams enforce security policies, protect corporate data, support employees, and maintain compliance. They can also reduce the administrative burden on internal IT teams.

Depending on the MDM platform and environment, mobile device management can support smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other endpoint devices. Organizations can manage company-owned devices as well as, in some cases, personally owned devices used for business purposes. Policies can be tailored based on device type, operating system, user, location, or business requirements.

Mobile device management helps IT teams establish consistent security controls across mobile endpoints. Features may include device encryption, password requirements, application controls, security configuration, compliance monitoring, remote lock and wipe capabilities, and conditional access. These controls can help reduce the risk associated with lost devices, unauthorized access, outdated software, and compromised endpoints.

Yes. Managed mobility solutions can be designed around different device ownership models, including corporate-owned devices and bring-your-own-device (BYOD) programs. Policies can be configured to protect company data while providing an appropriate level of privacy and flexibility for employees using personal devices for work.
