The IT Nerd

The IT Nerd team recently had the opportunity to attend Citrix Mobility in Toronto. This is a one-day event hosted by Citrix executives and product specialists, which provides strategic guidance on how you can enable mobile workspaces evolution for your organization. One thing that really got our attention is Citrix XenMobile which is their entry in an emerging application space that is referred to as mobile device management or enterprise mobility management. Both could be described as the administration of mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablets and laptops when linked to a corporate network.

What XenMobile does for you is help to configure, secure, and support mobile devices in your company. You can also protect company data on any device or corporate asset and selectively wipe any device if lost, stolen or out of compliance. This is important because mobile devices are becoming the norm in corporate environments. That includes smartphones and tablets.
