Mobile Device Security
Laptops | Tablets | Netbooks | Smartphones
What is it:
The ability to protect your mobile devices from threats due to loss, malicious users, and data leakage.
Problems:
You might need to look at your Mobile Security if you answer “Yes” to any of these questions:
- Is your Acceptable Usage Policy still a work-in-progress?
- Is your enterprise information asset policy lacking a clear message?
- Does your asset inventory list need an update?
- Have you had corporate mobile devices lost or stolen?
- Are you mobile devices unencrypted and leaving you concerned about a potential data breach?
- Have your users failed to implement the standard security policies on their mobile devices?
- Do your users have an administrative account on their corporate computer?
- Are your employees using their own personal devices like an iPad or Netbook for access to your network?
Solutions:
Creating and enforcing mobile security policies are a critical first step in locking down your mobile devices. Your employees need to understand how to report stolen or lost equipment as soon as it happens. They also need to understand what’s at stake for your company should a data breach happen that would impose fines and compliance violations due to their neglect.
