What a lot of people don’t understand is how mobile device management works. Oftentimes, people ask if it is software and the answer to that is yes and no. MDM is a solution that uses software as a component in order to provision and protect mobile devices and their data. Organizations practice this by applying not only software but also processes and security policies to their mobile devices and their use.

Besides provisioning and managing device inventory, MDM is a great way to protect a mobile device’s data, content, and applications from threats.

So what sets this apart from mobile security?

Brian Egenrieder and Ted Bienkowski join Reid Estreicher on the Beyond the Device Podcast to discuss mobile security and coming CMMC requirements.
