Turn of the century who could have guessed the impact wirelessly enabled technologies would have on the socioeconomic landscape of modern business. We sure didn’t. Back then Mobile was for dreamers, not hard-nosed business pragmatists and besides we had more pressing matters: we believed Y2K was about to send us all packing back to the Stone Age.
Man-oh-man were we wrong and on both counts.
Today, it takes no imagination at all to witness the transformative power of the wirelessly enabled Internet of Things and the always-on business ecosystem it has fostered. Wireless technologies, as wonderful as they are, are not without myriad challenge and one of them in particular is bedeviling IT professionals everywhere: Information System Security and Management.

Device Management
