📱 Mobile Workforce Security Challenges

🔒 The increasing mobility of the enterprise workforce poses significant security challenges for global enterprises. With mobile workers accessing corporate resources from a variety of networks, including Wi-Fi hot spots, hotel broadband, and home broadband, the need for a comprehensive mobile workforce security strategy is no longer an option – it’s a necessity.

🌍 Today’s mobile workforce no longer just refers to road warriors like traveling salespeople and business executives. Mobile technologies have given companies the flexibility to deploy workers in ways that allow them to meet new business challenges and increase productivity, posing a new series of security challenges for IT. It’s inevitable that keeping mobile devices connected often increases your company’s exposure to Internet-based security threats.

🔧 The inherent complexity of the mobile workforce, emerging new security threats, and tightening security resources leave many security managers wondering where to turn to protect their networks. Easier said than done since ensuring mobile endpoint device compliance with corporate security policy is an extraordinary challenge.
