Going Mobile, Securely

Think Tank - 3:15 pm - 3:40 pm

The average employee uses at least 3 different mobile devices to access business data. This number has risen and so has the amount of company data that is being stored on each device. Each device represents another endpoint that needs to be secured. While mobile malware threats are low, it's expected that there will be a rise in data breaches directly related to mobile devices. Providing access to company data via a secure web application infrastructure with real-time vulnerability management is one way of reducing risk with mobile devices. 

Takeaways:

  • Mobile devices are generally considered safe means to access business data 
  • Employees use an average of three mobile devices, each is its own security challenge 
  • Data breaches through mobile devices are expected to increase
