Wireless devices have rapidly evolved past cellular phones and “dumb” client PDAs. Today, many devices are designed to interact with corporate assets in a client-server architecture. This presents IT administrators with the challenge of securing a client that resides outside the corporate network and accesses sensitive data that lies within that network.

Organizations can establish an overall infrastructure for security that includes wireless devices by installing security features on the devices and implementing appropriate security policies. The purpose of this document is to provide an understanding of the six key mobile computing security concerns that an IT department should consider when evaluating a wireless solution.

Key Topics

• Confidentiality, integrity and authenticity over the network
• Confidentiality of data on the devices
• Virus and other malware protection
• Support existing corporate security standards
• Establish, enforce and periodically update security policies
