Jacksonville:
Most businesses invest heavily in securing their networks, servers, and cloud environments. They harden firewalls, enforce strict password policies, and constantly monitor backups.
Yet, the one device employees carry everywhere—the mobile phone—remains a massive blind spot.
Today’s mobile devices house everything: corporate email, MFA authenticators, sensitive files, and direct access to internal systems. They are constantly on the move, frequently replaced, and operated outside the traditional security perimeter. For many organizations, they are the least governed part of the IT stack. Mobile Device Management (MDM) bridges this gap.
Your Most Vulnerable Infrastructure: The Smartphone
We no longer just use phones for calls; we use them to run our businesses. They are the keys to our systems, used daily to approve requests and authenticate identities.
“The problem is that mobile devices quietly became critical infrastructure,” said Adam Preusler, IT Manager at Kustura Technologies. “But most companies still treat them like personal accessories instead of business assets.”
That mismatch creates risk. A lost phone can mean exposed email, lingering access after an employee leaves, or a compromised account that bypasses other security controls entirely.
With MDM in place, organizations can enforce security policies such as passcodes and encryption, control which applications are installed, remotely lock or wipe devices if they’re lost or stolen, protect company data on employee-owned devices, and maintain visibility into which devices have access to company systems.
“If a device goes missing, you shouldn’t be guessing what access it still has,” Preusler said. “With proper management in place, you can act immediately.”
Support, Management, and BYOD
Bring-your-own-device (BYOD) environments are now standard for small and midsize businesses. According to Market.biz, about 67 % of employees use personal mobile devices for work, often without formal policies governing how those devices access company systems.
That reality brings flexibility and productivity, but it also introduces risk. At Kustura, MDM combines day-to-day mobile support with long-term mobile security, addressing immediate issues like email setup while enforcing policies that protect business data over time.
Those policies apply to business access, not personal content. Even on personally owned mobile devices, Kustura’s MDM approach focuses on securing company systems without infringing on employees’ private use.
“Companies don’t need visibility into someone’s personal life,” Preusler said. “They need confidence that business data is protected wherever it’s accessed.”
A New Standard of Business Security
Security expectations have reached a tipping point. Between stricter cyber insurance requirements and the permanence of hybrid work, mobile devices are now the center of the modern enterprise. Without clear oversight, they remain a dangerous weak link in an otherwise secure environment.
MDM replaces guesswork with total visibility.
- For the Business: Faster response times and fewer security surprises.
- For the Employee: The confidence to work from anywhere with consistent support and clear expectations.
“Phones are no longer optional in business,” Preusler said. “They deserve to be managed with the same intention as every other part of your IT environment.
