The Challenge

A large, leading financial services institution eliminated their existing bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policy and implemented a new mobile model that required all employees to use a company-provided mobile device with consistent security applications and procedures. Given increased cybersecurity risks and regulatory governance factors, the company was eager to urgently enact this new policy, so they turned to Tangoe.
