The rise of remote and hybrid work environments has changed the way nearly all organizations operate. This shift has been marked by an increase in the number of endpoints, which are any devices that connect to a network and access organizational resources. According to Enterprise Strategy Group, 70% of employees now rely on four or more devices for their daily work activities. These devices include laptops, desktops, tablets, smartphones and even printers.
This proliferation of endpoints, particularly unmanaged mobile devices, presents a double-edged sword for organizations. On one hand, it provides a more flexible and mobile workforce. On the other hand, it creates a much larger attack surface for cybercriminals to exploit.
Unmanaged devices, by their very nature, exist outside the organization's traditional security perimeter. They may not have the latest security patches installed, or they may lack antivirus and anti-malware software. If a hacker gains access to one of these devices, they can potentially steal sensitive data, disrupt operations or launch attacks on the wider network.
Unmanaged devices also disrupt employee productivity. Inconsistent configurations across different devices lead to compatibility issues and make it difficult for employees to easily switch between devices throughout the day. Additionally, a lack of centralized control makes it challenging to distribute software updates, applications and security policies.
To address these challenges, organizations need to prioritize gaining visibility and control over their users' mobile devices.
Enter NinjaOne.
NinjaOne automates the hardest parts of IT and assists IT teams with visibility, security and control over all endpoints. The NinjaOne platform is proven to increase productivity, while reducing risk and IT costs.
Recently, NinjaOne expanded its platform with mobile device management, or MDM. The new solution increases employee productivity and reduces complexity, risk and costs for IT teams by managing Android and Apple mobile devices and endpoints within a single, intuitive console.
NinjaOne MDM offers MSPs and IT teams a single, unified console to manage everything – from the smartphones in your pocket to the servers humming in the data center. This centralized view slashes complexity and cuts costs by eliminating the need for a hodgepodge of management software.
NinjaOne MDM lets MSPs and IT teams see and control everything happening on users’ devices. Craft and enforce watertight security policies across an entire mobile fleet at fast speeds. This shrinks the attack surface to a pinprick and keeps organizations safe from threats.
NinjaOne MDM also offers real-time mobile screen sharing. MSPs and IT teams can provide hands-on support and resolve problems more easily, which keeps users productive and frustration-free.
"Today, IT teams need to keep all mobile devices compliant, up to date, and secure to ensure their employees can do their best work,” said Sal Sferlazza, CEO and co-founder at NinjaOne. “NinjaOne MDM consolidates the many different devices IT teams are managing into a single console, providing a simple way to improve security and productivity while freeing up time and resources.”
With the introduction of MDM, NinjaOne now has endpoint and device coverage beyond unified endpoint management.
