Mobile devices have become essential tools for healthcare professionals, enabling them to access patient records, clinical guidelines, and other critical information from anywhere. However, the use of mobile devices also presents unique security challenges, as these devices are often easily lost or stolen, and mobile apps can be vulnerable to malware attacks.
Embracing the future of healthcare with mobile device management
How to enhance your company’s BYOD security
Bring your own device (BYOD) is a trend that has grown in popularity because of the convenience it offers employees, but it also presents a serious security risk. If an employee's personal device is not appropriately secured, it can become a potential entry point for attackers to gain access to sensitive corporate information.
Mobile device management: A game changer for healthcare
More hospital wireless networks are making use of mobile device management (MDM) software to monitor every device connected to their network, and for good reason, too. Here are the numerous benefits MDM offers to healthcare organizations.
Compliance
Governments have established several regulations, such as HIPAA, to protect patient records, but mobile devices are posing a major challenge to these regulations.
Mobile device security and virtualization
Securing mobile devices is challenging. They often have privileged access to sensitive data that they connect to via unprotected network connections. Virtualization vendors are finding ways to include solutions to these problems in their products and they’re perfect for small businesses.
Protect your devices with virtualization
With cybersecurity threats targeting small and large businesses, solutions that protect mobile devices are no longer a niche service. More work is being handled away from the office, which means more opportunities for security breaches. Virtualization vendors are leading the charge to tackle these challenges with innovative solutions.
NSA endorses mobile virtualization
Mobile device management is a full-fledged subset of IT security. Employees store and view sensitive data on their smartphones, which exposes your organization to a significant amount of risk. Although there are plenty of great solutions for managing this, the National Security Agency (NSA) believes mobile virtualization is the next big thing.
