Our business mobile security services enable you to protect your mobile estate and data
Business mobile security is a critical aspect of cyber security and mobile devices are integral to efficient business communication. However, the risks associated with them demand a comprehensive security approach. Security challenges arise from the rapid adoption and deployment of mobile technology in line with the normal hybrid and remote working patterns and this alone is a common oversight of deploying critical mobile security measures. Our business mobile security services ensure your mobile estate and business data is securely managed in a highly secure environment 24/7.
Understanding mobile security threats
Mobile security threats manifest diversely, spanning from phishing attacks to the stealthy infiltration of malware and exploitation of vulnerabilities. Effectively countering these types of mobile security threats requires the implementation of robust security measures. Our mobile security solutions protect against these challenges, ensuring uniform protection across your mobile devices.
Beyond safeguarding against known threats, our mobile security solutions dynamically evolve to address emerging risks. They also empower secure remote work capabilities, enabling your team to operate seamlessly while maintaining stringent compliance and best practise mobile security standards.
The different types of Mobile Security Measures
Zero Trust Network Access
Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) is a mobile security model that operates on a never-trust, always-verify principle. It requires thorough user and device authentication for every access attempt, regardless of the users location. ZTNA focuses on continuous verification, minimising access privileges to prevent unauthorised lateral movement within the network. With successful implementation of ZTNA, mobile security is enhanced through constant validation, offering robust protection against evolving cyber threats and ensures secure access to critical resources.
Mobile endpoint protection secures and defend mobile devices and tablets
This includes protection against malware, phishing attacks, and other malicious activities that could compromise the security of the device and the data it holds.
This security approach involves deploying software on mobile endpoints to actively monitor and block potential security threats. mobile endpoint protection typically includes features such as real-time scanning, threat detection, and response capabilities to promptly mitigate any identified risks.
Website content filtering
Website content filtering on mobile devices is a security measure that controls and manages the types of content users can access online. It prevents users from visiting malicious or inappropriate websites and protects against phishing attempts.
The website content filtering system evaluates website content against predefined criteria, including categories like adult content or malware hosting, and if a site violates these criteria, access is restricted or denied.
This solution adds an additional layer of defence and is crucial for safeguarding business mobile devices.
Mobile Patch Management
Patch Management is a critical component of mobile security. Mobile patch management is the process of identifying, acquiring, testing, and applying updates or patches to the software and applications on mobile devices. These patch updates typically address vulnerabilities, bugs, or security flaws in the software, helping to enhance the overall security of the mobile device.
Mobile devices are typically susceptible to patch vulnerabilities that can be exploited by cyber threats. By ensuring that these vulnerabilities are promptly addressed at that your business mobile devices software is kept up-to-date with the latest patches, your business can protect against known vulnerabilities, and reduce the risk of exploitation.
