Infonetics: Employee-Owned "Rogue" Devices a Top Reason Enterprises Invest in Mobile Device SecurityCAMPBELL, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Market research firm Infonetics Research released excerpts from its 2013 Mobile Security Strategies and Vendor Leadership: North American Enterprise Survey, which details enterprises' plans for deploying security solutions for mobile devices, as well as their thoughts on leading mobile security vendors. ANALYST NOTE "For many IT organizations, there's an immediate need to do something about the mobile device security problem because like it or not, a new wave of mobile devices is being connected to corporate networks, and companies are looking to lock down these devices and control which apps they can use," notes Jeff Wilson, principal analyst for security at Infonetics Research. Wilson continues: "We believe that SSL VPNs will become a cornerstone of many enterprise mobile device security strategies moving forward because they solve an immediate connection security requirement, are familiar and easy to use, often free, and will likely support additional security and control functions."
