8 best practices for device control in 2024

Adopting a security solution and utilizing it to its highest potential has a visible impact on the cyber landscape that only a few can discern. Moreover, if the security solution is capable of regulating peripheral device activity and restricting unauthorized access, it warrants a laser-honed focus. This is a device control solution that, when configured effectively, sets apart the intruding devices from the devices with legitimate access, significantly decreasing the device-based concerns for the system admins.

Consider the infamous 2022 Uber breach, where an Uber contractor's account was compromised by an attacker and brought the ride-hailing empire to its knees by exposing the data of 77,000 employees. The root cause for this breach was a malware-infested personal device of the Uber contractor.

A data breach and its repercussions have no place in business. If a device control solution, refined with a best practices approach, had been employed, Uber could've navigated its day like any other.

What is better than a device control solution? The one with the best practices!

Without giving much away, with this e-book, you can learn how to:

  • Devise effective device control policies
  • Control devices on endpoints, but based on its users
  • Create a "no room for error" approach to ensuring maximum enterprise security
