1 Define your goals and scope

The first step to creating a future-proof mobile device policy is to define your goals and scope. What are you trying to achieve with your policy? How will it support your business objectives and values? Who will be affected by your policy and how? What types of devices, platforms, and applications will you allow or restrict? How will you measure and monitor the effectiveness of your policy? By answering these questions, you can establish a clear vision and direction for your policy and align it with your organizational strategy and culture.

Start by asking yourself, "What do we want to achieve with our mobile device policy?" Is it enhancing security, improving employee productivity or it's both you have to clearly define your objectives so it serves as the policy's backbone. Keep in mind, this isn't just about restricting usage, it's about enabling your team to work smarter and safer.

?? Estableciendo Objetivos y Alcance para una Política de Dispositivos Móviles ?? Crear una política de dispositivos móviles efectiva comienza con claridad en objetivos y alcance. Pregúntate: ?Qué buscas lograr? ?Cómo se alinea con los valores y estrategias de tu empresa? Considera a quién afectará, qué dispositivos y aplicaciones se incluirán y las restricciones aplicables. Define cómo evaluarás su impacto y efectividad. Al hacerlo, aseguras que la política no solo sea un conjunto de reglas, sino una herramienta estratégica que respalde tus metas organizacionales, promueva la productividad y refleje la cultura de tu empresa.

2 Choose a suitable management model

The next step is to choose a suitable management model for your mobile devices. There are different options available, such as BYOD (bring your own device), COPE (corporate-owned, personally enabled), or CYOD (choose your own device). Each model has its own advantages and disadvantages, depending on your budget, security, and flexibility requirements. You should also consider the legal and regulatory implications of each model, such as data protection, privacy, and ownership. The best model for your policy will depend on your specific needs and circumstances, but you should aim for a balance between control and convenience.

Selecting a management model is akin to picking out a new mobile phone. You wouldn't choose a model that doesn't fit your lifestyle or needs, right? Similarly, your management model should align with your organization's culture and objectives. Think about what will work best for your team's workflow and balance between flexibility and control.

?? Seleccionando el Modelo de Gestión de Dispositivos Móviles Correcto ?? Al desarrollar una política de dispositivos móviles, es crucial elegir el modelo de gestión adecuado. Opciones como BYOD (Trae tu propio dispositivo), COPE (Propiedad de la empresa, habilitado personalmente) y CYOD (Elige tu propio dispositivo) ofrecen diferentes niveles de flexibilidad, seguridad y control. Considera las implicaciones de presupuesto, seguridad, y regulaciones legales de cada modelo, buscando un equilibrio que se ajuste a tus necesidades organizacionales. La elección correcta debe equilibrar control empresarial con conveniencia para el usuario, asegurando la protección de datos y la privacidad sin sacrificar la productividad.

3 Implement security and compliance standards

One of the most critical aspects of your mobile device policy is security and compliance. You need to ensure that your mobile devices are protected from unauthorized access, data loss, malware, and other threats. You also need to comply with the relevant laws and regulations that apply to your industry and location, such as GDPR, HIPAA, or PCI DSS. To achieve this, you should implement security and compliance standards for your mobile devices, such as encryption, authentication, password policies, remote wipe, device updates, and audit logs. You should also educate your employees on the best practices and responsibilities of using mobile devices for work purposes.

Imagine your mobile device policy as a secured building. This building needs walls (security protocols), a secure lock system (encryption), and guards (compliance standards) to protect against invaders (cyber threats). Just as in the case of the building, it's important to prepare with the future in mind by implementing and using materials that can adapt to new threats and technologies.

?? Estableciendo Seguridad y Cumplimiento en Dispositivos Móviles ?? La seguridad y el cumplimiento son fundamentales en la política de dispositivos móviles. Es vital proteger los dispositivos contra riesgos como acceso no autorizado y malware, y asegurar el cumplimiento con regulaciones como GDPR o HIPAA. Implementa medidas como cifrado, autenticación robusta, políticas de contrase?as, borrado remoto, y actualizaciones regulares. Además, la educación de empleados sobre responsabilidades y prácticas seguras es esencial. Estas acciones no solo protegen la información corporativa sino que también fortalecen la confianza en el uso de tecnología móvil en el ambiente laboral.

4 Enable productivity and collaboration

Another important aspect of your mobile device policy is productivity and collaboration. You want to enable your employees to work efficiently and effectively with their mobile devices, without compromising security or quality. You should provide them with the necessary tools and resources to perform their tasks and communicate with their colleagues and customers. For example, you can use cloud-based services, mobile apps, VPNs, or virtual desktops to facilitate access to data and applications. You should also set clear expectations and guidelines for mobile device usage, such as availability, responsiveness, and etiquette.

5 Review and update your policy regularly

The final step to ensuring your mobile device policy is future-proof is to review and update it regularly. Mobile technology is constantly changing and improving, and so are the needs and preferences of your employees and customers. You should monitor the performance and feedback of your policy and make adjustments as needed. You should also stay informed of the latest trends and developments in mobile technology and how they affect your business and industry. By doing so, you can ensure that your policy remains relevant, effective, and adaptable to the changing mobile environment.

Just like updating your phone to keep it running smoothly, regularly reviewing and updating your policy is also important. The digital world is constantly changing, with new threats and technologies emerging at a rapid pace. Regularly reviewing your policies will help ensure your policy remains relevant, effective, and doesn't become the equivalent of that app you downloaded and never used again.

In the corporate world, firstly there needs to be awareness that products and systems must have an Enterprise and not Consumer focus. This way, the company and employees can count on a robust and safe mobility solution. Consumer cell phones are not corporate tools! Therefore, it is important to review the concept and update the policies. The digital world is under attack, we need solutions to support this structure, clear that they are distinct functional universes. This will ensure consistent TCOs, real ROIs, and "peace" for the IT team. That, together with EEMs can keep equipment, OS and applications safe, and know that the hardware is robust enough to withstand heavy daily uses, also to exclusive employee's professional activity.
