In an ever-evolving threat landscape, device management solutions streamline business operations and play a vital role in your organization’s cybersecurity.

If you’re not already using a device management platform or struggling to stay on top of MDM best practices, keep reading to learn how to secure your devices with Electric X JumpCloud’s seamless integration.

Why use a device management solution?

From laptops to smartphones, the proliferation of workplace devices means greater productivity and flexibility for employers and employees. But, more devices also create more work regarding procurement, provisioning, and day-to-day management. Plus, an increase in endpoints exposes more potential targets to attack.

Mobile Device Management (MDM) solutions eliminate manual processes while mitigating critical risks associated with business devices:

• A laptop is stolen every 53 seconds (and 43% of thefts stem from remote work).
• 33% of cyber attacks on small businesses involve compromised or stolen devices.
• Outdated antivirus software on employee devices plays a role in 41% of cyber attacks.

Benefits of device management

With an expert device management solution like JumpCloud, SMBs can lighten their workload while strengthening their defense against threat actors. The security benefits of MDM include:

• Centralized management: gain complete visibility of your entire device inventory, with real-time insights into health and security. Remotely lock and wipe devices in the event of loss or theft.
• Proactive updates: roll out standardized policies and security updates in a few clicks. Keep all of your devices up-to-date, all the time. No downtime or manual lifting is required.
• Automated provisioning: securely set up new or transition devices between employees with pre-established user settings and access permissions.
