What is mobile device management (MDM)?
Mobile device management (MDM) is the method of enrolling, configuring and protecting company phones and tablets from a central panel. With MDM, the security policy applies to every device in the same way. When a device is lost, company data is wiped remotely.
MDM sends email, Wi-Fi and VPN settings to devices centrally. It distributes company apps and detects devices that do not comply with the policy. This way, the management effort does not grow at the same rate as the number of devices.
How are company devices and personal devices (BYOD) managed?
A company-owned device and an employee’s personal device need different levels of management. Mobile operating systems support this separation with their own methods:
- Android Enterprise: A personal device uses a work profile. Company apps and data stay in a separate profile. A company device used only for work is set to fully managed mode.
- Apple iOS and iPadOS: User Enrollment is the method for personal devices. Company-owned devices are enrolled with Automated Device Enrollment through Apple Business Manager.
With these methods, only the work profile and company data are managed on a personal device. The employee’s personal content stays outside management. This separation protects employee privacy and keeps company data secure.
How does our MDM service work?
- Inventory: We list the phones and tablets in your organization, their operating systems and their ownership (company or personal).
- Policy design: We define encryption, screen lock, app and compliance rules together with you.
- Enrollment: We enrol the devices in the central panel and apply the policies.
- App distribution: We distribute company apps to the devices.
- Monitoring: We track the device inventory in the central panel and report non-compliant devices.
- Lost device: We log the loss report and lock the device from the central console. If the device is not found, we wipe company data remotely.
