Why LetMobile?

“Bring Your Own Device” – An opportunity and a challenge

Today, most of your employees already own smartphones and tablets. And they want to use them to access work mail. This is a big opportunity for employers to increase productivity and reduce the amount of company-owned devices. But it raises a host of new challenges.

• What if a personal mobile device is lost or stolen?
• What if the device, or communication to/from it, is hacked in a wireless hotspot?
• What if the device is shared with others: spouse, kids, kids' friends, etc.?
• What if the device is jail-broken, rooted, or worse - taken over by malware?

 These very real scenarios pose risks that must be addressed:

• Compromised email content and corporate credentials
• Data leakage
• Attacks on other corporate IT resources
• Compliance with regulatory standards
  
  

Mobile email security essentials

Dealing with security on personal devices is a new frontier for IT and calls for a fresh approach. The conventional management methods don’t apply when it comes to personal property, and are very difficult to implement as the quantity of devices rapidly expands.

Effective guidelines for mobile mail security include:

• Let people connect
• Make sure they do so in an orderly fashion that complies with corporate policies
• Support all current and future mobile device types
• Protect corporate email data
• Manage access to ensure it is done properly
• Ensure access conforms with regulatory requirements
• Remove barriers to adoption. Maintain the “original” user experience of the personal device, so that users do not try to evade or avoid security
