It is reported that employees send an average of 20 work-related emails from their mobile devices every day. Due to the ongoing advancement in technology, many workplaces have steered away from the traditional desk, computer and landline phone setup and have started allowing employees to utilize their own devices to increase comfort and productivity. While it may seem beneficial to enable employees to access information when they are not at the office, it can create a large network vulnerability.
Data Access
By allowing employees to handle valuable data on various devices, it can be difficult to properly manage the extensive network and ensure information is properly protected from breaches. By implementing proper management for the network, companies can ensure the information accessed across mobile devices is safe and secure.
Tracking Devices
By properly managing the enterprise mobility, devices can be remotely tracked if lost or stolen. This means employees can be held responsible for the valuable inventory that occasionally goes missing, which can be a huge money-saver in the long term. This technology can also provide analytics on employee productivity, logistics, supply chain, shipments, order status and customer feedback, according to Customer Think.
Remote Access
If a problem with the network does occur, any troubleshooting can be accessed via remote control access to the system. This can decrease downtime and increase productivity of workers. According to TDWI, a benefit of enterprise mobility management is being able to identify the root causes of performance issues without requiring escalation.
