GEC NEWS WIRENew Version Adds Full Featured Apple iOS7 Support and Separation of Personal and Corporate Data to Enforce BYOD and Compliance
Sophos announced the latest version of Sophos Mobile Control for best-in-class mobile device management. Currently available, Sophos Mobile Control enables organizations of all sizes to use mobile devices such as iPhone, iPad, Android and Windows Phones, to get work done – simply, securely and reliably.
Designed to address ‘bring your own device’ (BYOD) programs and the vast compliance requirements organizations face, the new release of Sophos Mobile Control features an easy-to-use web-based console, deployed either on-premise or as a Service, to manage, protect and secure data. It delivers effective mobile device management to control the devices that access corporate systems, with new iOS 7 features including better separation of personal and corporate data, cost savings with support for the Apple’s new Volume Purchase Program (VPP), and Touchdown © support on Android devices. Using Sophos Mobile Control, IT teams can equally enforce regulatory compliance as well as corporate-mandated policies for complete data and device security without complexity.
The new version supports Windows Phone 8, Android, and iOS 7, Apple’s latest mobile operating system, currently deployed on more than 200 million devices.
“Mobile security knows no boundaries. Organizations of all types require simple solutions to protect their people and information from increasingly damaging threats,” said John Shaw, vice president end user security products at Sophos. “Sophos Mobile Control is a complete solution for confidently protecting the mobile workforce and classroom; we’re delighted to deliver it to the market.”
Sophos Mobile Control 3.6 is immediately available. Customers can trial it either hosted or on-premise.
