You can insure your devices – but what is your data worth?

• MDM helps enforce controls such as password, lock, etc. If you’re not sure, you’re not secure

• Protect Android devices with anti-malware protection Users can remove protection, so needs to be enforced

• Malicious websites can also target mobile users Apply web protection to keep web threats at bay
