Mobile Security

Mobile devices have transformed the business environment for the better, but have increased organizational risk. Employees carry your company’s critical business information everywhere that they go. Unfortunately, many organizations lack the resources and knowledge to actively manage the security risks and controls associated with mobile technology.

Security Strategy

Your organization needs a mobile device security strategy that includes:

  • Alignment with organizational strategy/objectives
  • Risk assessment(s) for mobility
  • Policies governing the use of devices
  • Security standards based on data

Our security consultants understand the importance of mobile security assessments.
They provide expert advice and recommendations based on testing your existing solutions and devices. Let us help you manage mobility risk.

BYOD (Bring Your Own Device)

Many organizations are looking to implement or are currently using a BYOD model. There are inherent savings associated with this model; however, corporate risk increases. How is your organization ensuring that?

  • Patch levels for operating systems and apps are up-to-date
  • Required security software is active and current, i.e., antivirus, firewall, full-disk encryption, etc.
  • Devices are not jailbroken (Apple) or rooted (Android)
  • Unapproved devices are being tracked
  • Verifying the presence of blacklisted apps

Theft & Loss

The value and compactness of mobile devices lend themselves to being easily lost and are attractive to thieves. Our team will review what controls are in place to prevent theft and loss.

Mobile Malware

Mobile devices such as smart phones can introduce malicious software and other attacks into your corporate systems. We’ll test how susceptible your organization is to mobile malware.

Mobile Device Lifecycle Support

Mobile devices tend to have very short support lifecycles increasing the risk of unsupported and unpatchable devices being used. Our experts will examine the devices in your business environment, ensuring all devices pass device life cycle phase testing including Provisioning, Usage, Maintenance, Monitoring/ Troubleshooting, and Decommissioning.

Mobile Working & Remote Connectivity

Empowering employees with mobile technology increases productivity but also extends your corporate network beyond readily protected boundaries. Leverage our experts to ensure that your employees are following remote working activity standards, preventing strangers from eavesdropping on conversations, or keeping unwanted onlookers from viewing confidential information on their devices.
