Mobile devices like Microsoft® Pocket PC are changing the way we work in the 21st century. More and more businesses are extending corporate information out to where it is most needed – with the customer, on the road, or at the depot. In this way, companies which embrace mobile information to empower their workforce can gain huge competitive advantages, either through better customer service or through reduced administrative and business process costs. However, whilst extending this information can open up new avenues for the enterprise, IT managers must also be aware that mobile working brings certain new security risks. Some are associated with taking devices or data outside the corporate firewall, some relate to wireless access to the corporate Local Area Network (LAN), and others derive from the disconnected nature of mobile computing and the need to use the Internet.
