mobile devices

With the ever increasing capability of mobile devices, together with continual increase in wireless throughput (one Gbps wireless LAN throughput is a reality today); there’s a clear need for a comprehensive and robust wireless deployment strategy in all public and private sector organisations.

Today, business is conducted in a fast-paced, on-demand, globally dispersed environment. Maintaining a competitive edge requires cohesive real-time collaboration. Mobile workers, partners, vendors, suppliers, and even customers expect to be able to work together seamlessly, both inside and outside the firewall. But delivering tools for high-quality collaboration is often challenging, due to the need for businesses of all sizes to support a wide range of personal and business devices. Mixing disparate devices with complex conferencing solutions often lead to frustrated employees, while businesses face a labor-intensive, costly endeavor without a high ROI. In addition, collaboration is evolving with businesses creating small "huddle" spaces and open workspaces that increase the demand for ubiquitous, effective conferencing. The Intel Unite ' solution is a fast, simple, cost-efficient way to deliver a more secure, manageable, high-quality collaboration experience. Whether you select the

With trends such as big data, artificial intelligence and IoT dominating today’s business technology headlines, the buzz around enterprise mobility (now considered known and familiar) may have lessened, but its importance has not. Consider its key role in today’s top tech trends, and then also consider this. According to an Oxford Economics survey of 500 senior IT executives, CEOs, and other senior managers, 80% say workers cannot do their jobs effectively without a mobile device. The same survey shows: 82% say mobile devices are critical to employee productivity 82% say mobile devices are critical to agility and the speed of decision making 76% say mobile devices are critical to customer service and satisfaction 75% say mobile devices are critical to innovation and collaboration 70% say mobile devices are critical to employee satisfaction and 70% say mobile devices are critical to revenue growth. The known and familiar now demands a fresh look and focus from enterprise organizations a

The future of work means a new IT balancing act No matter what the work of your organization, today it’s likely done… …As much out of the office as in it …As much on mobile devices as traditional computers …And much more through cloud applications for core business activities and collaboration with customers and partners. The future of work has arrived, and with it comes a complex new balancing act for IT. On one side of the scale are high expectations for how IT can enable digital transformation and innovation in the business. On the other side is more accountability for mitigating risk, even as growing adoption of new technologies means more apps, more devices, and more mobile employees. This balancing act is driven by current challenges and trends in four areas.

Digital Business Demands Better Software, Faster In your organization, you’ve probably heard questions like these asked of the application development and/or infrastructure and operations organizations. > Why can’t our software development teams keep up with new business requirements? > Why are we always waiting on infrastructure teams? > Why do our business initiatives become outdated before their required software is even deployed? > Is our software development team aligned with corporate goals like engaging younger consumers on their mobile devices?

Technology is critical to mission success. However, hostile physical environments and specialized use cases put more stringent demands on mobile devices being used by the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corp (USMC). Robert Murphy describes the unique requirements for these programs.

Thousands of federal employees are issued mobile devices every year to carry out their agency’s mission. The government has strict security standards for such devices, but a new poll by Government Business Council (GBC) suggests that employee perceptions may be at odds with organizational priorities regarding security of these mobile devices.

Mobility is critical to government productivity, but mobile data and devices present attractive targets to cybercriminals seeking to exploit vulnerabilities across the spectrum. Federal agencies are no strangers to cybersecurity attacks, and several recent high-profile breaches involving mobile devices demonstrate ongoing vulnerabilities in government’s expanding network of endpoints. This issue brief describes what can be done to protect devices, data and networks, including multi-factor authentication to authorization controls and user education.

In today's hyperconnected and digitized world, cybersecurity has become an important strategic imperative owing to the sophistication of cybercrime. Digital businesses require complex and distributed interactions among people, applications and data - on premise, off-premise, on mobile devices and in the cloud. The result is an increase in the attack surfaces that are hard to protect and defend. As the perimeter continues to diminish, visibility into the environment gets tougher. Operational Technology (OT) and the Internet of Things (IoT) massively expand the scope of security strategy and operations. When a massively distributed fleet of autonomous devices that can make decisions is combined, directly affecting the physical state of people and things, there is a considerable risk to manage. This issue is not limited to the chief information security officer (CISO) but needs the involvement and sponsorship of the leadership and the board.

While we tend to think about mobility largely as a consumer phenomenon, it is also changing how the workforce carries out business. With so much being done beyond traditional office walls, many insurance companies, financial service organizations and even government agencies are adopting mobile tablets and smartphones as productivity tools for agents, representatives and personnel, and developing enterprise apps for these devices.

Today, mobility is no longer a trend. It’s the new reality — and it is reshaping the enterprise. Gone are the days of employees tethered to desktop computers, and they’re no longer dependent on an Ethernet or wi-fi connection to work remotely. More and more enterprise employees are conducting daily work transactions on mobile devices. Mobility surged to 1.3 billion workers in 2015, continuing a 33 percent growth trend since 2010. These mobile workers aren’t limiting themselves to a single device, either. In just the last year, the number of devices managed by enterprises grew an incredible 72 percent.

The mobile device is part and parcel of daily life. It’s fundamentally changed the way consumers behave, and this influence has spread to the enterprise sector as well. For instance, patron-owned mobile devices have largely helped pave the way for the widespread emergence of bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies. Ten years ago, the idea of a company employee logging into the enterprise system while they’re on an airplane over the Atlantic would seem far-fetched, but today such behavior is relatively commonplace. Mobility is changing how we shop, work and live our daily lives.

While the shift from disk to digital offers tremendous potential opportunities, it also presents a host of new challenges for gaming companies. As the online channel grows increasingly complex and the pace of innovation accelerates, many companies struggle to keep up. Not only are there websites and storefronts to manage, but also real-time gaming servers, large software downloads, and live-streamed competitions and events. Games are transforming from fixed, boxed products to dynamic, ongoing services – with frequently updated content, in-game micro-transactions, virtual goods and social interactions. Mobile adds another dimension to the trend, as consumers increasingly look to play on smart phones and tablets – or on multiple screens across devices. To successfully navigate this complex and changing landscape, gaming companies need an agile, high- performance infrastructure that allows them to turn the Internet into a reliable and effective online distribution channel. This requires f

The widespread use of mobile devices — smartphones and tablets — provides anytime, anywhere computing and communications resources for individuals worldwide. Both smartphones and tablets have made the transition from a personal resource, acquired and supported by consumers, to a professional resource, provided and supported by employers. For midsize firms around the world, those with 100–999 employees, mobile resources play a key role in improving workplace productivity as well as allowing greater flexibility in how and where work is done. New collaboration resources also allow staff in different locations to work together as efficiently and effectively as staff in the same office. The challenge for IT management is how best to coordinate the different collaborative and mobile resources and provide secure management of mobile devices and collaboration tools while enhancing workforce agility and productivity.

ENDPOINT DATA. It’s often one of the most forgotten aspects of an enterprise data protection strategy. Yet, content on laptops, desktops and mobile devices is among a company’s most valuable data even while it’s potentially at the greatest risk. According to IDC there will be some 1.3 billion mobile workers by 2015. However, only half of enterprises today are using some type of endpoint backup. That means that the volume of endpoint data that is in jeopardy is nothing short of significant. Download to read the buyer's checklist on endpoint data protection!
