NetIQ MobileAccess is a virtual appliance that enables access from iOS or Android mobile devices to business-critical corporate services and data that employees need to remain productive.
IT organizations can struggle with the conflicting need to tightly control access to sensitive data while staying in step with business demands for mobility solutions as well as SaaS, Web and legacy applications underpinning business processes.
According to Forrester Research, “On average, 15% of employees are accessing sensitive data such as customer information, nonpublic financial data, intellectual property, and corporate strategy from devices other than work laptops and desktops.” These devices are almost all personal and often lack basic security controls to protect data in the event the device is lost or stolen.
“The nature of the 24-7 global workforce means employees need access to business applications and data from a variety of devices,” said Ian Yip, Security Specialist, NetIQ. “Additionally, that corporate information needs to be fully accessible and secure. Both these needs can now easily be met.”
NetIQ’s mobile access provides secure direct access to corporate information housed in today’s rich Intranets. Access policies are based on employee and role, without intruding on the user or device.:
· Delivers granular access of corporate services and applications to mobile devices based upon an employee’s identity.
· Eliminates the need to navigate Intranet sites via a mobile browser, which can be difficult and time-consuming on phones and tablets.
· Avoids the need to store corporate credentials locally on the device, which limits risk and corporate exposure when devices are lost or stolen.
NetIQ MobileAccess pricing starts at $8.50 per user (including first-year maintenance). It is available worldwide and is complementary solution to NetIQ Access Manager.
