Re: Mobile Device Security programs

[Hugh Burley <Hburley () TRU CA>]

We are using a combination of the BES and NotifyLink (
http://www.notifycorp.com/ ).  
 
NotifyLink does not appear in the Gartner Report that Mikhael mentions
but is a reasonably full featured mobile device management solution. We
have been reasonably satisfied with this solution.
 
You can access the Gartner report here:

Good Morning Everyone,
 
                With the proliferation of mobile devices across our
campus I need to investigate security programs to gain control over this
environment.  What I am looking for are applications that can be
installed on university owned devices either Ipad, Tablet, Android,
Iphone, blackberry, Symbian OS, Windows Mobile, so very vendor non
specific.  The application needs to be easy to manage and non-resource
intensive.  I would like the ability to remote wipe as well as monitor
for any devices that have been rooted or jail broken.  I have found one
application that does a lot of this  “Bullguard Mobile Security”  does
anyone have experience with this application or can anyone recommend a
better one?
 
Sincerely,
