Mobile Device Security
Keeping Your Phones, Tablets & Mobility Secure
Always On, Always Protected
Mobility expands your perimeter — users on phones, tablets, remote networks, hybrid work all increase risk. Key pain points include:
- Devices connecting from untrusted networks (public WiFi, hotspots)
- App-based threats, malicious or over-privileged apps
- Device loss, theft, or physical compromise
- Inconsistent security posture, fragmentation across OS / platforms
- Lack of visibility into device states & behavior
- Managing personal devices (BYOD) along with corporate ones
If mobile is weak, your security perimeter leaks — data, access, and trust are all at risk.
Mobile Device Challenges
Untrusted Network Access / Public WiFi Risk
Users connect from cafés, airports, hotels — networks you don’t control — exposing traffic to interception.
Malicious or Risky Apps / App-Based Threats
Malicious apps, over-privileged apps, or app vulnerabilities pose risks. Users may install apps that exfiltrate data or exploit device vulnerabilities.
Device Theft / Data Loss
Mobile devices are easily lost or stolen. Unprotected data on them becomes a direct risk.
Fragmented Posture Across OS / Platforms
iOS, Android, possibly others — each with its own security model; managing consistent policies across them is complex.
Poor Visibility & Threat Detection
You have limited visibility into what the device is doing — network calls, anomalous process behavior, configuration drift, etc.
BYOD / Unmanaged Device Risk
Users’ personal devices, unsanctioned devices, or unmanaged devices introduce risk — but you can’t treat them like fully corporate devices.
Subnetik Solutions
Untrusted Network Access / Public WiFi Risk
Enforce encrypted tunnels (VPN), DNS-layer protection, web filtering, and traffic inspection regardless of device location.
All device traffic stays safe — no matter where your users roam.
Malicious or Risky Apps / App-Based Threats
Use app vetting, application control, black/whitelisting, runtime behavior analysis to block or quarantine suspect apps.
Only trusted applications run; risky ones are neutralized before damage.
Device Theft / Data Loss
Enforce encryption, remote wipe, device lock, geofencing, lockdown modes.
Even if a device is lost or stolen, corporate data stays protected.
Fragmented Posture Across OS / Platforms
Use a unified Mobile Threat Defense (MTD) / unified policy engine that supports multiple OS platforms and enforces posture rules consistently.
Whether a user is on Android or iOS, your security stance is consistent, predictable, and effective.
Poor Visibility & Threat Detection
Collect telemetry (network, app usage, configuration changes), detect anomalies, issue alerts or automated response.
Threats don’t hide — you see them and act.
BYOD / Unmanaged Device Risk
Use conditional access, containerization / secure workspace separation, policies that only protect corporate data inside guarded containers.
Users enjoy flexible device use, while corporate data is protected and isolated.
Why This Mobile Device Security Approach Works
- Secure Mobility Everywhere — Protection travels with the device, not just within office walls.
- App-Centric Control — Focus on app safety and behavior, not just network protection.
- Data Protection by Default — Encryption, wipe, lock — no data breach from device loss.
- Consistent Security Across Platforms — Your policies don’t vary by OS.
- Actionable Visibility & Detection — You see threats early and respond quickly.
- Flexible BYOD Support — Balance usability and security for personal and corporate devices alike.
