With mobile security, the Homeland Security Department says the goal is to give agencies visibility from their mobility device management systems by sending data to their agencywide cyber dashboard for greater understanding of their mobile devices. Over the longer term, DHS wants to help agencies with mobile application management in order to ensure agencies have the right protections in place to secure the entire mobile environment. In this exclusive executive briefing, the following federal practitioners explore implementing new CDM capabilities and how the integration of CDM and mobile devices continue to improve cybersecurity:
