Mobility<\/strong> and mobile applications<\/strong> in the workplace are being driven by a number of important trends including: a wide range of mobile applications, consumerization of IT and adoption of smart phones and tablets in the workplace. \u00a0Research firm International Data Corporation (IDC) forecasts Worldwide Tablet Shipments to Surpass Portable PC Shipments in 2013, Total PC Shipments in 2015. <\/a>\u00a0\u00a0Is your business ready to manage mobility in the workplace? \u00a0Below are some important factors to consider about Mobility.<\/p>\n

Secure Mobility<\/h3>\n

Your network security is only as strong as your weakest point. \u00a0Having mobile devices connected to your company network is fine, as long as they are secure. \u00a0These devices are increasingly targets of cyber threats like malware and virus infection. \u00a0What\u2019s more, these mobile devices are easy targets if lost or stolen. \u00a0To protect your corporate applications and data make sure your mobile devices have mobile antivirus protection. Require employees to report lost or stolen mobile devices immediately.<\/p>\n

Fast Mobility<\/h3>\n

Allowing employees to use their personal mobile devices for work is commonly referred to as a Bring Your Own Device Policy. \u00a0Make sure your wireless network (WiFi) has sufficient bandwidth and range so your employees have fast access to mobile applications including email, corporate applications and data. \u00a0This will ensure your employees are productive and happy at work.<\/p>\n

Mobile Applications<\/h3>\n

Mobility is a top IT trend so many software publishers offer mobile extensions to their applications. \u00a0Email, customer service, calendars and scheduling applications make it easy for employees to stay on top of their tasks when away from their desks. \u00a0Other mobile applications including: visitor sign in, customer loyalty applications and even credit card processing, all which \u00a0can replace paper based and other manual processes within a business.<\/p>\n

IT Consumerization and Mobility<\/h3>\n

Adoption of mobility for personal use has made it easy for non technical users to download, install and configure a wide range of mobile applications. \u00a0As mobile apps become popular in the workplace, it can be easy for employees to connect apps to corporate data. \u00a0If unauthorized, this method of deployment is known as Rogue IT. \u00a0Through written policies, procedures and education you can reduce the amount of Rogue IT in your company.<\/p>\n

By developing a mobility strategy for your business you can manage the risks of mobility in the workplace and empower your employees to work anywhere. \u00a0With proper planning, you can migrate to mobility and take advantage of this important IT trend.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
