    SUMMARY
    As the use of mobile devices in enterprise organizations
    increases, corporate and government organizations
    need to take the necessary steps to maintain the security
    of their email and application data. In using wireless
    devices, data is increasingly transmitted outside the
    corporate network and stored on mobile devices outside
    the physical boundaries of the organization.
    An effective wireless solution should be designed for
    enterprise-grade security and provide an architecture
    specifically for the realities of mobility. And finally,
    mobile devices must be protected from data loss,
    tampering and malware infection.

    THAT’S ALL
