Description:

For most organizations, mobility is evolving faster than they can implement solutions. While mobile devices are a productivity tool they also bear the potential for serious security breaches. Organizations will need to address mobile security threats — or else repeat mistakes from traditional non-mobile IT computing environments. A successful strategy includes people, processes and policies, and technology (e.g., encryption, remote wipe, client security, DRM, and DLP). This presentation analyzes user pain points, vendor offerings, and good practices for successful end user strategies encompassing (1) laptops; (2) managed corporate handheld devices, e.g., BlackBerrys, or corporate USB sticks; and (3) unmanaged (external) devices, e.g., consumer/personal gadgets or devices owned by partners or contractors.

Agenda:

  • The basics: scoping mobile device security; people, processes, and technology
  • The market: trends, challenges, drivers, and leading offerings
  • The recommendations: How should you implement solutions addressing mobile device security?
