Employees of an organisation can efficiently work on smartphones, tablets and laptops anytime and anywhere by implementing enterprise mobility. While mobility increases the performance and has enormous benefits, there are a few risk of security to information being stores and transferred from these devices. Adopting mobile devices and applications in a work environment is expanding in a fast pace over many organisations.
It has been observed that there is a risk to the privacy with the use of cloud and mobility software. These risks should be taken care of at the right time to ensure that there is no leakage of information and enterprise mobility is within the security controls.
Using wide range of devices
Many employees are using more than three devices at work. Few devices are owned by the organisation and others are owned by the employee. With this there is a variation in the policy of mobile security. The major issue is with segregating the personal and corporate data to manage work in a better way.
Stolen or lost devices
There are high possibilities of mobile devices to lost or stolen. With this comes the risk of information security as the lost device can let unauthorised access to the corporate data. Thus, organisations must have strict guidelines for its employees to secure the access on their mobile devices with a security password. The strict authentication program will help corporate data to be secure and safe.
