Why MDM is Essential to your organization. (Part two)

If you're a large business or an enterprise company, you'll definitely want to look into either MDM or enterprise mobility management (EMM).
There are many reasons why your organization may want to use MDM, but the common thread that runs through each and every one is control. Many of the devices that appear on your company's wireless network hold sensitive data. Because of this, you want to ensure that every device adheres to a strict policy that will go a long way to keep that data safe.
Consider this:

• some users don't use strong passwords;
• some users will use their device for personal and business purposes;
• some devices might not be registered with a service that would allow for remote lock down or wipe; and
• some users will install social network applications or other third-party apps that could lead to a security breach.

These are just some of the issues that could very easily come back to haunt you. Thanks to MDM, you can gain very granular control over employees' devices to ensure those phones and tablets don't become your network's Achilles' heel.
Some employees may want to use their own device for work purposes (BYOD). Because those devices will be working on a different carrier network (and sometimes on insecure wireless networks), you must ensure those BYOD devices meet your company's security policy. This is where MDM really shines.
In Part Three of this Series, we will cover How MDM's typically work.
