Case Study: Sophos enhances mobile device security with Redington’s Sophos Central Mobile

Sophos protects company-owned mobile devices with Redington and Sophos Central

Sophos, a company in the aviation industry, faced a security risk from company-owned mobile devices being used for personal purposes. They required a solution to restrict usage based on business and personal profiles, prevent screenshots of sensitive data, and needed a cloud-based platform to avoid an on-premises console. They partnered with vendor Redington to implement Sophos Mobile.

Redington implemented Sophos Mobile to protect the devices from malware and mobile threats. The solution utilized the Sophos Mobile container feature to separate business and personal profiles, safeguarding company data. This allowed for the management of all company-owned mobile devices through the Sophos Central SaaS console. The benefits achieved included a separate space for business apps, the prohibition of screenshots for business files, protection from mobile threats, and centralized cloud-based management.
