Description: This one or two day workshop starts with review of the various business uses of mobile devices and wireless standards in use today. The numerous device types are then looked at in more detail while determining the specific risks involved when these are used within the business environment. Attendees learn that each type of business use adds risk and increases the need for key controls to help mitigate and manage that risk. The session ensures that for every risk mentioned, a corresponding control is discussed to ensure that all attendees leave with a clear understanding of how they can mitigate the risks. From access to inventory to automated tools we analyze best practices and effective implementation. A large portion of the seminar concerns reviewing key controls for each type of device and how you might use those controls in your organization. Finally, we review how you might use the ISO 27002 standard to perform an effective review of your mobile security, ensuring that all key areas are effectively and appropriately managed and controlled.
