The business use of smartphones has become standard in everyday business life. This leads IT managers to the obligation of an improved IT security, because smartphones and tablets contain sensitive data such as emails, contacts, files, etc.
IT security also plays an important role when using PDA solutions * on handhelds or smartphones with Android operating systems. Often only certain apps are allowed and/or others are blocked on these mobile devices. Also the aspect of "Bring your own device" ( BYOD ), where employees use their own private smartphones for business purposes, requires a secure handling of the company's sensitive data.
SOPHOS Mobile Control is an IT security solution for all these use cases to secure mobile devices in business use.
