IT overhead creeps in through manual setup, inconsistent policies, and ageing devices. These three pragmatic moves, automated onboarding, centralised policy management, and scheduled retirement. Lower support tickets, tighten security, and give time back to your team.

Work now happens on phones and tablets - email, approvals, customer data. That convenience can widen your attack surface if devices aren’t managed. This practical guide shows three steps to cut risk: reduce patch latency with auto updates; protect data with encryption and strong identity; and be ready to find, lock or wipe lost devices. Includes iOS/Android baselines, simple runbooks, and KPIs leaders care about.

BYOD can look cheaper—but hidden costs in support, security and compliance tell a different story. We compare BYOD, COPE and COBO with a UK lens and simple TCO model, then show when a hybrid wins. Choose the right mix by role, risk and cost.

Mobile devices are your front line of security but many remain unmanaged. This article shows how Mobile Device Management (MDM) delivers visibility, compliance and zero-trust controls, reducing risk without slowing teams. Includes practical steps, KPIs and a 90-day rollout plan.
