Three Critical Mobility Factors That Can Make or Break your Cloud Computing Initiative

Learn how to ensure a successful, secure and productive Cloud Computing environment by controlling end user connectivity, access costs and security. This complimentary webinar will cover the critical factors that organizations need to consider when deploying mobile access for a cloud computing environment. Successful cloud computing projects are dependent upon one very significant and fundamental premise - ubiquitous access to the internet. The dependency on internet access in and of itself is not problematic, as access points are readily available in coffee shops, airports and now, even on airplanes. What is significant is that most organizations rely on their mobile workers to self-manage their connectivity. End users choose what, when, where and how to connect to the internet to access cloud-based applications, with little regard for security or cost of access.

Lowering TCO Through an Integrated Mobility Platform

Enterprises relying on 3G as their network of choice outside the office still face a host of challenges when it comes to managing 3G service and devices, especially when they rely on more than a single carrier and 3G device model. Service and device diversity make it hard to get clear visibility into 3G usage, complicate laptop configuration lifecycles and make it impossible to implement a common set of 3G cost and usage policies. These issues drive up the total cost of ownership of 3G and drain precious IT resources. More

Join this workshop to learn how a unified 3G management strategy can dramatically cut your total cost of ownership by: Providing a unified view of 3G data usage and 3G assets across the enterprise Enabling improved negotiating leverage with carriers for 3G service Leveraging embedded 3G technology, like Gobi from Qualcomm, and unified management solutions to simplify device lifecycle management and future proof mobile PC investments Implementing, enforcing and automating comprehensive 3G usage policies to optimize plan costs, prevent international roaming and plan overages, optimize security, and manage business vs. personal data use.

Mobile policies have been around for as long as mobile phones have been a business tool. The challenge is that mobile policies, if not automated and deployed appropriately, are typically ineffective. Organizations that rely on the honor system -- hoping that employees will remember to apply the policies that they read in their HR manual -- are leaving mission critical business decisions in the hands of the mobile worker. What is the potential exposure? Millions of dollars in mobility cost overages; security holes that allow leakage of sensitive corporate, client or patient data; and regulatory breaches that can bring an organization to its knees.
