Sophos' mobile device management (MDM) solution, Sophos Mobile Control, now manages more than two million devices, marking a 100-per cent increase in less than five months. And in less than two years since its inception, Sophos Mobile Control now counts more than 4,500 customers worldwide, with significant traction across North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. Sophos secured more than 800 new MDM customers in March 2013 alone.
"We have seen MDM revenue growth of nearly 400 per cent over the past 12 months, which we attribute to a pragmatic mobile strategy that makes sense to customers, prospects and partners alike – developing powerful, yet simple solutions to manage devices, secure devices and protect data. And as the mobile workforce continues to grow, businesses need a partner that can quickly and effectively protect this workforce and secure its data, which is why they are turning to Sophos," said Thomas Lippert, Senior Product Manager, Sophos.
Offered both on-premise and as-a-service, Sophos Mobile Control 3.0 added new support for Samsung SAFE devices, granting tighter control over how devices are used and making BYOD policies easier to define and enforce. It also provides integration with Sophos Mobile Security, which protects Android smartphones and tablets from malicious apps.
