With the growing use of mobile devices to connect with the enterprise network and access business data, mere locking down these devices is not enough. A centralized console is necessary to manage, control, and secure all such endpoints. With the integration of lockdown solutions like SureLock and advanced enterprise management solutions like SureMDM, IT administrators are enabled to not just lock down enterprise devices but also remotely manage these devices without compromising workflow and security.
With the out-of-the-box integration of SureLock and SureMDM Agent, the device enrollment process and device lockdown are quick and easy. With this integration, apart from device lockdown, IT administrators can also perform other functions like:
- Real-time tracking devices.
- Remotely manage and control devices.
- Remotely push applications and updates.
- Push security policies.
- Apply time, network, and geo-fencing.
- Track assets and much more.
Using the integrated SureMDM Agent with SureLock is very simple and is available for all Android operating systems. Install SureLock from the Google Play Store or 42Gears website, and enable SureMDM Agent from SureLock Admin Settings.
