Competing effectively in the future means being connected anytime, anywhere and
handheld Smartphones can be configured to automatically interact with a web server
without user intervention anytime, anywhere. This is the simple concept behind ubi-Suite,
a complete, centralized smartphone management suite of capabilities. All the functions
of this centralized smartphone management occur on a single secured server communicating
frequently with an entire fleet of smartphones located virtually anywhere in the
world.

The illustration above depicts the main functional components and their primary
uses. The benefits of this approach include:
|
|
|
|
Leading companies understand that smartphone security and management issues are
complex and evolving rapidly. They need a mobile business partner who has an in-depth
understanding of the ongoing complexity of security management with a track record
that demonstrates that expertise.

Three key areas must be considered for assessing the management of mobile devices—security,
risk avoidance and risk management:
|
|
|
|
Central management, monitoring, and device
control are maintained at all times by the policy
settings and control mechanisms provided by ubi-Suite. Actions by the user are monitored
for adherence to policies, and unsafe actions are prevented through pre-approved
security controls.
|
|
|
|
Automated installation takes place as soon as the user receives a phone and turns
it on for the first time. An SMS message appears immediately with a link to ubi-Suite
server. This initial contact initiates a secure connection between the Smartphone
and the ubi-Suite central server. All software, applications, certificates, files
and data are installed over the air without user intervention.

A positive user experience takes place as soon as the user receives a phone and turns
it on for the first time. An SMS message appears immediately with a link to ubi-Suite
server. This initial contact initiates a secure connection between the Smartphone
and the ubi-Suite central server. All software, applications, certificates, files
and data are installed over the air without user intervention.
|
|
|
|
Security and policy mandates are automatically maintained with each update from the central
ubi-Suite server. The appropriate installation files, configuration settings and
monitoring processes are sent to the smartphone based on the user’s smartphone login
and are automatically applied. Periodic smartphone check-ins provide secure, auditable
control for all aspects of the smartphone under the control of the centralized ubi-Suite
administrator.
