Mobile Device Management
By Chris Eburne · Module IT
The use of mobile devices has boomed over the last decade and they have become commonplace for employees to have a device issued from their employer. But what happens if the device is lost? What options does the employer have?
The answer is not a lot, unless they took the time to configure the devices using MDM software.
What is MDM?
MDM or Mobile Device Management software allows remote access to mobile devices at any time. This means that if a device is lost it can be tracked, along with many other features such as remote locking and wiping of the device.
Why Does It Matter?
Having this capability gives employers peace of mind that if the worst was to happen, they have the ability to mitigate risk. It also helps with complying with current Cyber Essentials requirements for issuing mobile devices used for business.
