white paper for verimatrix by eric newcomer
Organizations reduce mobile app risk by controlling applications employees use for business purposes such as corporate email, conference calls, phone calls, text, and document sharing.
In addition, many organizations offer mobile apps for their customers. It’s at the point now where it’s a competitive issue – every business offers a mobile application to its customers as part of the customer experience, and to increase revenues and “stickiness.”
With businesses so focused on mobile applications, the growing use of mobile devices by an increasingly mobile (and remote) workforce, and the proliferation of customer focused mobile apps, how does an organization bring it all together and get a comprehensive view of their overall security risks and vulnerabilities?
Many organizations already have a Security Operations Center (SOC) to monitor security vulnerabilities, risks, and alerts across the organization’s internal network.
Mobile devices, however, run outside the organization’s network perimeter and are not directly under the control of the cybersecurity staff, opening up a new set of risks and vulnerabilities.
Verimatrix XTD can not only protect against such threats and respond to them, but also integrate mobile app alerts into an organization’s SOC dashboard and reports.
