EMM software provides better security for businesses that allow remote work through standardized policies and data control.
Policy standardization
Companies can already implement security policies on their in-house and owned devices, but employee-owned devices used to present a large hole in an organization’s security framework. Thanks to EMM though, IT can now implement the same policies on both static and mobile devices to close vulnerabilities in the network.
Improved security analytics
With security tools in place on mobile devices, companies can now see how employee mobile devices affect their overall security. EMM software includes reporting and analytics that can tell organizations how many potential issues come through mobile devices and where any major vulnerabilities lie — including which applications see the most breach attempts.
Lower technology costs
When companies allow employees to use their own devices for work and still keep them secure, they don’t have to spend as much to provide devices to employees. EMM software typically costs only a few dollars per user or device, depending on the included features.
