Now that we are all acclimatising to the new ‘work from home, ethos, businesses are starting to identify the challenges in securely managing and maintaining an increasingly disparate fleet of end user computing devices.  Traditionally, end user computing device management would rely on the fact that staff, and their devices, would be working from the office location and as such, IT teams would rely on traditional PC Lifecycle Management (PCLM) tools to manage these devices that were directly attached to a corporate network.

As we all are doing our part to help mitigate against the rapid spread of COVID-19, where possible, we are taking the opportunity to ‘self isolate’ and work from home.  The challenge this raises for businesses that are fully entrenched in the traditional PC management framework is how do they continue to ensure that the end user computing devices are patched, maintained and secure when they are no longer attached to the corporate network?  By losing this line of site to the end user computing devices, there is the increasing security risk around data leakage and the inability to respond rapidly to any zero-day threats or vulnerabilities.  This is where the world of Unified Endpoint Management can assist you.

By converging all disparate end user computing endpoints such as phones, tablets, PC’s and laptops, on to the one cloud-based management platform, the issue around only being able to manage these devices if they are attached to the corporate network disappears.  Fundamentally, the cord that binds these devices to their organisations data centres can be severed as all management and security policies can be deployed from the cloud-based platform, a platform that can communicate with these devices security no matter their location, through the use of the internet.

Mobilise IT has a proud heritage in helping customers unify their endpoint management which allows our customers to have a mature level of comfort knowing that their end user computing fleet is securely managed and maintained irrespective of whether these devices are in the office or at home whilst also being able to provide businesses direct insight and metrics related to the end user experience their staff are receiving through the power of Mobilise IT’s own Prisma platform.  If you’d like to know more about how you can leverage Mobilise IT’s capabilities to secure your fleet of devices and also how to ensure your staff are experiencing the best digital end user service possible, we are more than happy to have a conversation with you.  Please feel free to contact us to find out more information.
