Wireless & Mobile Security
The rise in the mobile workforce is putting more demand on IT departments for greater access to mobile devices and greater access to corporate data stores through those mobile devices. Responsible organizations recognize the inherent risks this carries and take the necessary steps to maintain the security of their sensitive data.
In many cases, solutions that work in a desktop environment are impractical for mobile computing, given the constrained processing, memory and battery resources of mobile devices. To be effective, an enterprise wireless security strategy needs to address:
- Securing the mobile device and its data
- Securing the communications to and from the mobile device to the Corporate network
- Optimizing the enterprise network to support business mobility
Allow us to evaluate the security risk specific to your enterprise and recommend specialized tools such as a wireless intrusion detection and intrusion prevention system. Wireless security is also a people problem and user education goes a long way in mitigating the security risks. Consider the training options in our Knowledge Center.

What is
Mobile Security?
Complete mobile security encompasses a written mobile security policy, the security of the mobile device and its data, the security of the mobile communications to and from the mobile device, and the optimization of the corporate network to support business mobility. The mobile device and its data are secured by controlling access to the device, ensuring the security of stored or removable data on the mobile device, protecting it from viruses and malware, and the securing of Bluetooth connections. Communications to and from the mobile device need to be secured through confidentiality, integrity and authentication over the network. To support business mobility, the enterprise network needs to be optimized by extending the network perimeter to the mobile worker, segmenting the network for security and reliability, and device management.
