APRIL - 2021ENTERPRISE SECURITY| | 19collects actionable data to helps businesses improve visibility into their rugged Android fleet. It offers granular device-specific data, including software usage, network details, application information, battery health, and operating system information. It works in tandem with the Enterprise Launcher to collect user-level login and logout details. By leveraging this check-in/check-out data, managers can see which employees currently have devices and when they last used them, thus creating device accountability. "This plays a vital role in preventing lost devices," adds Makerson. A third component of the EMS is BlueFletch Enterprise Installer, an Android-focused Enterprise Mobility Management tool (EMM) that leverages Google's cloud infrastructure for security, scale, and consistency. "We are a Google validated EMM, so we can manage any Android device that's out there," Makerson asserts. More importantly, all these tools are built from the ground up on the concept of Zero Trust--ensuring the security of devices from bad actors. With such a comprehensive solution, the BlueFletch EMS toolset has been leveraged by many large enterprises that have rolled out Android devices over the last few years. One example is a textile retailer headquartered in Georgia. They were losing hundreds of devices each year. This posed several problems, including exposure of company data, financial impact (rugged devices costs $500-$2000), employee downtime, and potential exposure to a network breach. By leveraging the BlueFletch EMS toolset, the company created device accountability and significantly reduced the number of lost devices. In another case, a large grocery chain used BlueFletch EMS to add an additional layer of security to their existing Mobile Device Management (MDM) system. The client had converted all their legacy applications to Android, but they didn't have an SSO process. The company leveraged the BlueFletch Launcher to support their custom applications with SSO. As a result, the store employees could log in and start using all apps within a few seconds, which improved app adoption and productivity. Driven by many such instances of client success, BlueFletch is continuing to grow its offerings by leveraging machine learning and AI to drive security and user experience improvements. "One of our core values is to solve our customers' toughest problems while delivering an awesome end-user experience. We will continue to evolve our EMS toolset to help enterprises solve the problem of ever-increasing security threats," concludes Makerson. ESBusiness should have control over devices from a security standpoint without affecting employees' user experience
