Case Study: Thames River Capital secures mobile access and enables BYOD with MobileIron

Thames River - Customer Case Study

Thames River Capital is a UK-based boutique investment firm managing over £14 billion that requires 24/7 access to email and business applications worldwide. Facing the risk of sensitive data exposure from lost or stolen smartphones and a desire to move from a corporate-liable model to employee-owned devices, the firm needed a field-tested solution that supported BlackBerry, iPhone and iPad, met ISO 27001 requirements, and offered virtualized management with strong local technical support. Thames River engaged longtime partner BlueFort Security to lead the selection.

BlueFort recommended and deployed the MobileIron Virtual Smartphone Platform (September 2010), giving IT a single pane of glass for device control and Mobile Activity Intelligence for visibility into usage, capacity planning and cost control. The solution enabled enforcement of security policies, supported BYOD safely, met compliance needs and streamlined mobile management—delivering stronger data protection and ongoing operational benefits.
