Protecting Company Data on Staff Mobile Devices
With employees working on personal smartphones and tablets, keeping sensitive company data secure has never been more important. Using personal and mobile devices to access company data creates many risks.
What’s the good news?
Microsoft Intune MAM (Mobile Application Management) gives your business the tools to stay in control, by reducing risk to company data on personal mobile devices.
What Can Go Wrong Without Mobile Device Management?
When staff access company emails, files, or apps on their phones, there’s little stopping them from accidentally or intentionally copying, saving, backing up or screenshotting sensitive company information. A forwarded document or captured screen can lead to a data breach, compliance issues, or worse.
How Intune MAM Puts You Back in Control
Microsoft Intune allows your IT team to apply specific rules directly to company apps and data on any device:
-
- Block copy and paste from company apps into personal apps.
- Prevent screenshots of sensitive screens within company apps
- Block company file downloads so they can’t be saved to personal storage
- Block sharing of company data to personal email or apps like WhatsApp
- Remotely wipe company data from a device if it’s lost, stolen, or an employee leaves the business
These controls apply to any personal mobile or tablet devices your staff bring to work. MAM only controls the company data on the devices and personal information is not accessible by the Intune administrators.
Why This Matters for Your Business
Data protection regulations like the Australian Privacy Act mean you have a legal responsibility to protect the information you hold. A mobile security policy backed by Intune MAM helps you meet those obligations while giving your team the flexibility to work from anywhere.
