Secure Mobile Device Management

Implement an effective solution that ensures a smooth transition to a proven secure mobile device management system.

Protecting Mobile Devices from Compromise

Smartphones, smartpads and other mobile devices are permeating the United States Federal Government as they are the private sector.  As a result, many government officials are focusing on mobile security, and working diligently to pinpoint the best ways to encrypt data on these devices, keep government data separate from personal data on employee-owned phones, and allow government employees to purchase the phones of their choice while still managing them effectively.  Solving these problems will help better protect classified and non-classified government data, and protect employees from mobile threats such as malware, email and SMS phishing, spyware and malicious Web sites.

Enabling the Government Workforce in a Mobile World

Accuvant Federal Solutions provides comprehensive services to help government agencies determine which personnel needs a mobile solution, and the means by which the data to be delivered will be kept secure in transit and while at-rest on mobile devices.  Our team begins by reviewing the data reference model (DRM) within the agency's enterprise architecture.  Understanding the DRM enables us to perform a risk assessment on the agency's transition to a secure mobile device solution.  Next, we focus on developing a secure mobile architect model, and then a transition plan to assist the agency roll out the approved solution.

Our Secure Mobile Device Offering consists of six distinct concepts:

• Mobile Data Reference Model helps develop a better understanding of data models and data types within the agency, and create controls to permit or deny specific data types, and set the stage for a risk assessment.
• Mobile Security Risk Assessment outlines the risk associated with each data type and the personnel who have access while within the agency and potentially on their mobile devices.
• Secure Mobile Device Architectural Model develops requirements and documents current and future states.  The secure mobile device architecture is a living model that will change over time as the industry and the  agency's architecture continue to mature
• Secure Mobile Device Management Engineering designs a complete secure mobile device management solution that aligns with the agency's architecture and policies, and federal mandates.
• Government Agency Application Store Development for Android and iOS registers the agency for the iOS and Android application-development programs.  This includes getting applications digitally signed so that only approved government applications run on specified smartphones, and training appropriate personal on how to push new applications out to authorized users.
• Government Agency App Development for Android and iOS develops custom applications for Android and iOS.
