| MDM is usually implemented with the use of a third-party product that has management features for particular vendors of mobile devices. 75% of people prefer employers who enable them to work anywhere, anytime. Mobile device management (MDM) is a type of security software used by an IT department to monitor, manage, and secure employees' mobile devices (laptops, smartphones, tablets, etc.) that are deployed across multiple mobile service providers and across multiple mobile operating systems being used in the organization. The rapid adoption of smartphones and tablets, along with increasing numbers of employees who are working from home or other non-traditional locations, has placed mobility solutions near the top of many business’ priority lists. Tablets and smartphones are arguably less secure than desktop PCs and laptops because they lack pre-installed malware protection. Most computers include at least a trial version of an antivirus suite, but for the newest mobile gadgets, individual users and IT managers are on their own to search for and install mobile endpoint security management. Cloud services and infrastructure may be rising in popularity, however many organizations are still opting to have systems running in their own data centers. This has given rise to MDM solutions for on-site, cloud and hybrid options. Before any business makes a decision on their MDM solution, they must consider which option is right for their preferences. |
