Mobile Device Management Made Simple with Managed Encryption

Many businesses and organisations allow corporate data to reside on company owned smartphones, tablets or devices and some use a ‘bring your own device' (BYOD) policy, however there are many implications and risks involved. How do you know if these devices are secure?

MFG’s Mobile Device Management (MDM) allows businesses and organisations to secure their workforces’ mobile devices running iOS and Android operating systems to ensure they’re encrypted and follow compliance policies.

Lock down your Mobile Devices

MFG’s Mobile Device Management protects sensitive information held on mobile iOS and Android devices and allows for seamless integration and profile deployment. MFG work with you to configure the profile complexity for your client taking into account feature blocking, password strength and change frequency, furthermore our Managed MDM solution can provide inventory reporting and a log of encrypted devices, which falls in line with your organisation’s wider compliance policies.

MDM By Managed Encryption

For many years Mobile Device Management (or MDM) software has allowed IT personnel to control, enforce, and thus secure policies on mobile endpoints including smartphones and tablets.

MFG Managed Encryption takes this functionality to the next level and has removed the burden from busy IT administrators, with a fully managed solution – meaning there’s no further legwork post-deployment.

How does Managed MDM Work?

MFG’s Mobile Device Management employs their very own endpoint software called Managed MDM. MFG has a secure MDM server that lives in the cloud (or in actual terms; a highly secure tier-4 data centre).

Depending on whether the device is company owned or BYOD, company staff can remotely configure the Managed MDM application with some simple instructions. The server then pushes those policies over to the Managed MDM agent on the device.

The agent applies the predetermined policies to the device by communicating directly with the device’s operating system.

Is my password not strong enough?

Both Apple iOS and Android mobile operating systems have encryption built in, but managing the devices for an entire workforce can be a time consuming challenge, plus with Android, encryption can be turned off by the user.

MFG manages the encryption for your entire business at scale, enforcing encryption across all devices at all times as well as offering a number of other value added features including: enforcing stronger passwords, password expiration dates and reducing the number of wrong PIN entries before the device is wiped.

Easy to Deploy

Enrolling the encryption on your mobile device couldn't be easier. In this video we will be looking at how easy it is to enrol Managed MDM on your iOS device. Once complete, your device will be fully managed according to your businesses data security policies.

After deployment, Managed Encryption will take care of all your profile management and functions such as: resetting passwords, remote wipe, inject network settings, email configuration, blocks for Youtube, iMessage, Safari, iTunes, iBook Store, explicit content, AirPlay and more.

The True Costs of Remote Working... Can you afford the risk?
