Enterprise Owned Devices: As there is a high probability that employees lose the mobile device or somehow it can get stolen, a MDM Software or Mobile Device Management solution can assure your data security. With Mobile Device Management, you can track the lost device and keep backups on cloud storage. In case of emergency where the data cannot be recovered, remote lock and wipe feature will delete all the data permanently from the device that too from a remote admin dashboard.
For BYOD: For BYOD, containerization is a solution where you can create separate virtual containers in mobile storage and store corporate data.
