A place to discuss mobility as a service
Cloud based technology, the new paradigm of the 21st Century, makes mobility as a service possible. With so many network users connecting from remote locations, it makes perfect sense for companies to switch from LAN to cloud based IT services. Mobility as a service manages, supports, directs and protects remote workers, the network and its data from contamination and attack from outside sources by alerting a company's IT department to those endpoint units that are not in compliance with the latest security protocol or protected by the company firewall. Mobility as a service also enables that same IT department to download the latest security patches to its endpoints long distance. Mobility as a service may be an ideal network management solution for company IT departments, but one can also think of it as technology that empowers employees to maintain a better work life balance by permitting them to work from home when their children are sick, or when they themselves are too sick to come to the office but can still put in a few hours of work from home.
