How can you ensure your EMM solution is resilient to mobile worms?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

Mobile worms are malicious programs that can spread from one device to another, exploiting vulnerabilities or tricking users into installing them. They can cause serious damage to your enterprise mobility management (EMM) solution, which is designed to secure and manage your mobile devices, apps, and data. How can you ensure your EMM solution is resilient to mobile worms and protect your business from data breaches, productivity losses, and reputation damage? Here are some tips to follow.

1 Use a robust EMM platform

Your EMM platform should have features that can prevent, detect, and respond to mobile worms. For example, it should be able to enforce device encryption, password policies, app whitelisting, and remote wipe. It should also be able to scan devices for malware, alert you of any suspicious activity, and quarantine infected devices. Additionally, it should be able to integrate with other security tools, such as antivirus, firewall, and VPN, to create a layered defense.

Choose an EMM platform that offers comprehensive security features such as mobile threat detection, encryption, remote wipe capabilities, and policy enforcement. For example, VMware Workspace ONE and Microsoft Intune are robust EMM platforms known for their strong security measures against mobile threats like worms.

2 Update your devices and apps regularly

One of the main ways that mobile worms can infect your devices is by exploiting outdated software that has known vulnerabilities. Therefore, you should make sure that your devices and apps are updated regularly with the latest security patches and bug fixes. You can use your EMM platform to automate the update process, schedule it during off-peak hours, and monitor the status of each device. You can also use your EMM platform to block access to devices that are not compliant with your update policy.

Ensure that all mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets, are regularly updated with the latest operating system patches and application updates. For instance, iOS and Android regularly release security updates to patch vulnerabilities. By keeping devices up to date, you mitigate the risk of exploitation by mobile worms targeting known vulnerabilities.

3 Educate your users on mobile security

Another common way that mobile worms can spread is by tricking users into downloading malicious apps, opening phishing links, or granting excessive permissions. Therefore, you should educate your users on how to avoid these traps and practice good mobile security habits. You can use your EMM platform to send notifications, reminders, and tips to your users on how to recognize and avoid mobile worms. You can also use your EMM platform to test your users' knowledge and behavior with simulated attacks and feedback.

Conduct regular security awareness training sessions for your employees to educate them about mobile security risks and best practices. Provide examples of mobile worms like “Stagefright” for Android or “Pegasus” for iOS to illustrate the potential dangers. Teach them how to identify suspicious links, avoid downloading apps from untrusted sources, and report any unusual device behavior.

4 Backup your data to the cloud

Even with the best EMM solution and user education, you cannot completely eliminate the risk of mobile worms. Therefore, you should backup your data to the cloud regularly, so that you can recover it in case of a disaster. You can use your EMM platform to automate the backup process, encrypt the data in transit and at rest, and control who can access it. You can also use your EMM platform to restore the data to a new or wiped device, if needed.

Implement a backup strategy that automatically backs up mobile device data to secure cloud storage. For instance, solutions like Google Drive, iCloud, or Microsoft OneDrive offer automatic backup options for mobile devices. By regularly backing up data, you ensure that critical information is protected and can be restored in the event of a mobile worm infection or data loss incident.

5 Review your EMM policies and logs

Finally, you should review your EMM policies and logs periodically, to make sure that they are effective and up to date. You can use your EMM platform to generate reports, dashboards, and alerts that show you the status and performance of your devices, apps, and data. You can also use your EMM platform to audit the actions and events that occur on your devices, such as installs, updates, scans, and wipes. By reviewing your EMM policies and logs, you can identify and address any gaps or issues in your mobile security strategy.

Regularly review and update your EMM policies to align with evolving security threats and business requirements. Monitor EMM logs for any unusual device activities or security incidents. For example, if multiple devices suddenly start exhibiting abnormal behavior, such as excessive data usage or unauthorized app installations, it could indicate a mobile worm infection. By reviewing logs proactively, you can detect and respond to threats before they cause significant damage.
