TEMIA Thought Leader Panel Addresses BYOD, MDM and Mobile Security at Super Mobility Week(PR Web Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Westlake Village, CA (PRWEB) July 23, 2014 The Telecom Expense Management Industry Association, TEMIA, the authoritative voice for Telecommunications Management and Solutions Providers in related areas will moderate a Thought Leadership Panel at Super Mobility Week. The Thought Leadership session, which is powered by CTIA, is titled "BYOD, MDM and Mobile Security". It will begin September 9 at 3 PM in the Las Vegas Sands Expo and Convention Center on Stage 2 for Enterprise Apps, MDM, Big Data, Cloud. As new security threats arise, and more employees want to use their own devices at work, mobile security is more critical than ever. TEMIA will moderate the session which will address strategies that enterprises need to implement for BYOD, areas where MDM applications can help and limitations of mobile security that require extra steps to protect enterprise intellectual property, customer data and other sensitive information. TEMIA's panelists for this session are: • Lyndsey Richmond, Vice President, Enterprise Mobility for AuditMacs • Ralph A. Rodriguez, CEO and Chief Research Officer for Blue Hill Research • Nitin Khatri, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for eTelesolv • Simon Thomson, Chief Operating Officer, Americas for MDSL • Steve Haddock, Vice President, Sales for MOBI • Ken VanDerHorst, Director of Sales in the Western Region for WidePoint Corp. Steve Haddock, Vice President of Sales at MOBI, commented, "Mobility is complex, but when executed well it can have a profound impact on an organization's overall success. There are tool sets and best practices that IT decision makers need to be aware of in order to capture the full value and mitigate the risk of a mobile workforce. I'm honored to share these insights as a panelist." Nitin Khatri, Vice President of Marketing and Sales at Etelesolv said, "There is no denying that BYOD is hugely popular among employees. IT managers need to realize that the true cost of BYOD eliminates the productivity gains from employee satisfaction. Companies end up paying higher per-user costs because the volume discount on devices is gone, and device management becomes a logistical and security nightmare that greatly taxes the bottom line." Ralph A. Rodriguez, Blue Hill Research CEO and Chief Research Officer, said, "The onslaught of employee devices entering the corporate enterprise creates complex issues surrounding personal and work ownership across the device, data, and network. Next generation enterprise mobility management (EMM) is the only way for CIOs to truly manage devices and security to protect every party involved."
