United States : Dell Revolutionizes BYOD Mobile Worker Productivity and Security with Per-App VPN Access Controls for Any Mobile App [TendersInfo (India)](TendersInfo (India) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Dell today announced the release of an updated Secure Mobile Access solution that provides mobile employees with per-app VPN access to enterprise data and resources, while protecting the corporate network from security threats. By enabling IT to restrict VPN access only to a set of trusted mobile applications, the Dell Secure Mobile Access (SMA) solution is designed to manage and secure access to business applications and data, while coexisting with personal applications and respecting personal data privacy. The Dell SMA solution complements Dell s recently announced Enterprise Mobility Management solution, which securely manages both devices and containers. Dell SMA enables IT to restrict VPN access to a set of trusted apps and prevent unauthorized apps from accessing VPN resources. This solution protects traffic from interception and keeps in-flight data secure. Both solutions are open systems that work with other VPN and MDM solutions. The Bring Your Own Device trend and proliferation of both employee-and employer-owned mobile devices in the workplace has resulted in a mandate for IT to enable secure mobile access to corporate data and resources. While the potential for security breaches and the introduction of malware into the network can result from any type of mobile access, the risk intensifies with the co-mingling of business and personal data and applications when employees use personal devices for work. Previously, safeguarding mobile device access to corporate data and resources, as well as protecting in-flight data and data at rest on the device while not altering personal data has required IT to use proprietary mobile applications, custom application development, and complex multi-box solutions from multiple vendors to support desktop virtualization and container applications, adding significantly to complexity and the total cost of ownership. The Dell Secure Mobile Access solution helps organizations realize a Connected Security strategy by providing per-app VPN and a single-vendor capability for managing delivery and access levels to specific data and applications from any location, with personal devices. Fine Tune Access and Delivery, Maximize Productivity and Reduce Business Risk The Secure Mobile Access solution combines a Dell SonicWALL E-Class Secure Remote Access Appliance (SRA) powered by the new Secure Mobile Access Operating System 11.0, with the Dell SonicWALL Mobile Connect 3.1 mobile application, to enable IT to easily provision secure mobile access and role-based privileges for both managed and unmanaged devices for tens of thousands of users. Eliminating the need to offer all users access to all applications, the solution allows administrators to configure a set of mobile applications they trust, and Mobile Connect intelligently restricts VPN access only to the trusted applications.
