The importance of security cannot be overestimated. Internal and external access to networked enterprise resources is increasing.
The threats and exposures include the theft of mobile devices, weak passwords, the facilitation of intrusion attacks, impersonations, denial-of-service attacks and the access, alteration and misuse of corporate information. |

Client security |
There are several security layers to consider when deploying a mobile solution to the field:
- Device Security
- Application Security
- Communications Security
- Data Security
Booting-up of mobile devices and application access should only occur after appropriate authentication procedures. Use boot passwords, or more sophisticated biometric fingerprint and SmartCard-based identification schemes.
Communications security involving the data exchange between mobile devices and backend systems over public networks requires adequate sender / receiver identification as well as on-the-fly data encryption and decryption at both ends. Virtual Private Network (VPN) technology secures the confidentiality of your data and the integrity of your corporate network.
Once stolen or lost, nothing prevents a third party to physically remove the storage unit of a mobile device for manipulation using another computing host. Safeguard confidential information on the local storage medium itself using secure file and folder encryption for enhanced data security. |

Trusted platforms |
Fujitsu Siemens Computers provides best-in-class security products covering every corner of the threat spectrum. While the minimum protection a mobile device needs is an anti-virus program, an anti-spyware program and a personal firewall, Fujitsu Siemens Computers take matters one step further: TPM.
A Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is an LSI security chip embedded into mobile devices at the hardware level. It protects the device against attacks on its integrity or modifications of the installed security software. More and more professional mobile devices from Fujitsu Siemens Computers feature a built-in TPM or provide such an option. |
