Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is a new phenomenon in the corporate world that is redefining the methods by which corporate data is accessed and used. Accordingly, companies have to proactively design new strategies and rules to streamline data access through these devices.
As such, SOTI Inc. has announced support for iOS 7, Apple's (News - Alert) much anticipated mobile operating system. According to the company, this support will enable companies to optimize their employee’s usage of iOS 7 devices.
iOS 7 brings to the table numerous enterprise-centric features. Apart from providing excitement to iOS enthusiasts, this new version is expected to turn the tide in favor of iOS devices in the market. These new features must be used in conjunction with a dependable mobile device management solution.
SOTI MobiControl helps managers implement security and access policies regarding iOS 7 devices and allows them to dictate how corporate data is accessed from BYOD personal devices. For companies that are contemplating iOS 7 for EMM or BYOD initiatives, SOTI MobiControl is an ideal tool.
SOTI enables companies to design suitable policies and controls to detect problems and respond to possible threats. It is designed to allow companies to manage mobile asset lifecycles and ensure safety of data. It also enables companies to optimize available resources.
