F-Secure Freedome for Business- better security for the BYOD trend/h1>
Employees will often want to use any device, as long as it gets the job done, putting their and the company’s security at risk. This is where bring-your-own-device (BYOD) comes into play. Freedome for Business, a new service launched by F-Secure, gives companies the best of both worlds by offering them a single service that meets the security needs of companies, as well as the flexibility demands of employees.
Freedome for Business is a version of F-Secure’s Freedome app that’s been tailored to fit the needs of those more mobile businesses. Freedome for Business still has the same features as Freedome, the only difference is that it has business-oriented features to help companies protect their data and network security. It includes cloud-based security services such as encrypted communications, app and web security and mobile fleet management.
A current trend in business mobility is allowing employees to use devices they are more comfortable with. This makes it cheaper for companies and more efficient for employees but along with it comes security challenges. F-Secure now takes these challenges off businesses’ shoulders with F-Secure Freedome for business.
Most businesses have security solutions that are either too restrictive or confusing for employees. Freedome for business is the total opposite as it has a one-button interface, making it an effective security solution for companies. With a tap of a button Freedome for business will be activated.
F-Secure’s anti-theft capabilities allow IT managers to lock devices with randomly generated passcodes, or wipe data remotely. This will protect companies against data breaches caused by lost or stolen devices.
By managing these devices from a central interface, mobile security can be monitored without the hassle of any restrictions. This makes it easier and increases work efficiency for employees.
