Top 3 Security Threats to Enterprises:
Cyber crime has increased in the recent years. Top organization like Home Depot, eBay and Target have experienced corporate hack. Not only the organization, but also celebrities profile has been hacked and leaked over the net.
No wonder, even enterprise mobility hasthe same kind of problems. So, I am here to explain the top 3 security concerns that enterprises have…
1. Device lost/theft
With Bring Your Own Device approach,enterprisesneed to handle thousands of devicesused by employees. The capacity to store information in the device ranges from 32GB to 64GB.
The lost or theft of one device can pull down the company’s profit by around $250. This research was done by the Ponemon Institute. Enterprises can’t do much with the loss or theft of the device.In order to overcome the issue, enterprises can consider installing application and file management software/solutions.
2. Intrusion through app store permission
Mobile apps play the major role in our day-to-day life. On an average a user have 30 to 60 apps on hissmart phone. Many of the apps in the app stores require permission to be downloaded such as contact information, emails, access device camera and their location. Unauthorized apps can easily build a path to get into the enterprise app by using any of these combinations. An effective MAM (mobile app management) solution can secure mobile app on the user’s device.
3. Access Control:
Enterprises facea lot of difficulties to track the employees’ devicesthat is linked tothe company’s network. So enterprises give access to only the authorizedpersonnel to look into the critical data within the organization.
To overcome this problem, strict identity authentication is must. To give access to cloud based application for employees, 2 factor authentication protocolshas been implemented by many organizations.
