ENTERPRISE MOBILITY MANAGEMENT

Security & Protection in a Mobile-First World

Why You Need Enterprise Mobility Management

With the increased usage of mobile devices in the workplace, companies are now exposed to more vulnerabilities than ever. In an effort to combat these vulnerabilities and ensure all company data is secure, organizations are turning to Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions.

EMM is software that allows employees to safely use mobile devices and applications that are managed remotely by the company’s IT department. Today’s enterprises are dealing with an increasing trend of employees using mobile devices and enterprise mobility management helps improve productivity and security for these employees by allowing only specific applications to be used on specific devices, on an as needed basis.

Social Mobile’s EMM Platform

We built Mambo to fulfill the requirement of a simple, easy to use EMM platform. We focus on the features best suited for dedicated devices with zero-day support for new releases.

Work Profile (BYOD)

With a work profile, the end-user controls the device (parent profile) while the organisation can only monitor & control the dedicated work profile. The exception is the ability to enforce basic security requirements (passcode, debugging, etc) on the device. Work profile strongly promotes user privacy.

Fully Managed (COBO)

Devices can also be enrolled as fully managed. A fully managed device is intended for COBO use, offering no personal account or application management by default and instead only permitting the installation of approved applications through managed Google Play. The organization controls the whole device.

Dedicated Device (COSU)

To enable COSU, the device must be provisioned as fully managed. Once enrollment completes, the EMM will be deployed in kiosk mode which may offer varying features, functionality and customization. The device will then lock down to one or multiple dedicated applications and not allow engagement with the underlying OS unless permitted.

Components that Comprise an EMM Solution

Mobile Device Management

MDM refers to software that enables IT departments to secure and enforce policies on devices used in business, such as tablets or phones. Mobile device management is typically enforced by creating profiles for each device on the company’s network. Once the profile is created, the IT department can setup features like email, WIFI access, specific application access etc. If a device is lost or an employee is no longer with the company, the IT department can lock the device so that it can no longer be accessed (or even wipe the device clean).

Mobile Application Management

For companies who don’t want to deal with the possibility of wiping employees’ personal devices, the optimal solution is mobile application management, or MAM. With a MAM solution, the device itself won’t get locked down, but IT has the ability to lock down specific apps and data that contain sensitive information pertinent to the business. The IT department can also push out updates to specific apps, at scale, with mobile application management. MAM provides the ability to leave personal data such as photos or messages untouched and inaccessible to IT, while still securing the vital and confidential business apps and information.

Mobile Content Management

Mobile content management (MCM) or mobile information management (MIM) is another key feature of an EMM solution. In today’s world, collaboration is a huge part of business. Employees work together, even from remote locations, to accomplish a singular goal. Mobile content management helps employees collaborate by enabling access to documents, emails, notes etc. while working from different locations. While working remotely, the MCM system is making sure that all the data being transmitted is secure. Through encryption, MCM makes it safe for remote workers to transmit data across various networks and devices.
