Case Study: Dowling Aaron Inc. achieves secure, flexible BYOD mobile management with VMware AirWatch

AirWatch by VMware Enables Secure, Flexible SMB BYOD Mobile Device Deployments for Legal Firm Dowling Aaron Inc.

Dowling Aaron Incorporated, a privately held California law firm with 50 attorneys, had been a 100% BYOD shop for years, but the rapid adoption of smartphones and tablets created major security and management challenges for a very small IT staff. To better control email, files, and device access without compromising personal data, the firm turned to VMware AirWatch and its enterprise mobility management platform.

VMware AirWatch provided Dowling Aaron with a cloud-based mobility solution, including Secure Content Locker, that let CIO Darin Adcock enforce passcode and security policies, manage multiple device types and operating systems from one console, and selectively wipe only corporate data when needed. The result was secure BYOD mobility for the firm without adding staff or deploying expensive on-premise infrastructure, while also enabling new use cases like disaster recovery contact lists and more consultative device recommendations for attorneys.
