Microsoft and Samsung Team Up to Boost Work Phone Security
We've all experienced that sinking feeling when we realize we've left our work phone behind, whether it's tucked in a pocket, lost in a bag, or hiding under cushions. Panic sets in, not because of the device itself but because of the wealth of sensitive business information it holds. The nightmare scenario of that mobile falling into the wrong hands becomes all too real. But fear not, because Microsoft and Samsung have teamed up to revolutionize the way we keep our work phones safe. This month, they're unveiling a groundbreaking solution to safeguard anyone using a Samsung Galaxy device in a professional setting.

How Does It Work?

They call it "on-device attestation," and it's like having a security guard for your phone. This technology allows companies to check if mobile devices have been compromised, even at the deepest levels of their components. Samsung brings its impressive software and hardware innovations to the table, while Microsoft lends its expertise in endpoint management. Unlike other device attestation tools that depend on network connections and cloud services, this solution works reliably, regardless of network connectivity or device ownership model. This innovative solution will be launched alongside Microsoft Intune, a unified endpoint management service catering to both corporate devices and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) setups. It will be available for select Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets, particularly those "Secured by Knox."

Peace of Mind, Wherever You Work

Whether you're working from the office, a bustling coffee shop, or a remote cabin in the woods, rest assured that your device is safe. In the business world, your phone is more than just a communication device; it's a vault of valuable and sensitive information. With Microsoft and Samsung at the forefront, that vault just got a whole lot safer. For those seeking to elevate the security of their devices, contact TECHOM Systems.
