anytime, anyplace
that's the speed of business today. Now that it's easy to grab your smartphone to
take conference call
or create a sales presentation from your tablet. Suave business
are arming their workers the right tools to get the job done, and how is it working
mobile workers are more productive, they have valuable interactions
with clients, and they can also increase revenue by
issuing real time reports and statistics in the blink of an eye
Hi, I'm Jared Carleton, principal consultant in the Frost & Sullivan Growth Consulting Team
It seems like a no brainer that all employees
should have access to these tools, but if the devices are not secure
your companies data could be slipping right through your fingers.
No IT department would leave the company's most valuable
assets unprotected, but in a BYOD environment
with employee-owned devices, security concerns can quickly
become critical. The real challenge lies
in creating secure access for each mobile device on an as needed basis
things like remote secure access has to be possible from
any location like at home, on the road, at a clients office.
VPN access has to be available for
any mobile device, employee owned or company owned
from smartphone to tablets. There also has to be a consistent
user experience and bandwidth connections have to be fast
and reliable, and from an enterprise standpoint
remote access services should be portable and easy to implement.
they should also allow IT departments to control access
and enforce company security policies down to the
individual device level. Using a full-service communications services provider
that has addressed each of these issues will allow your company
to engage it's mobile communications needs today, with effective security solutions.
