Microsoft and Samsung Collaborate to Safeguard Your Business
Picture this: you’ve checked your pockets, rummaged through your bag, and even peeked under cushions – then it dawns on you. Your work phone was left behind on the coffee shop table. You start to panic.
It’s not the device alone causing concern; it’s the treasure trove of sensitive business information residing within. The thought of that mobile falling into the wrong hands is enough to induce nightmares.
But there’s a silver lining. Microsoft and Samsung have teamed up to bring you a game-changing solution that promises to strengthen your work phone’s security. This month, they unveil an innovative measure aimed at safeguarding users of Samsung Galaxy devices in the work environment.
How is this achieved?
It’s called on-device attestation. Think of it as a guardian for your phone, capable of scrutinizing devices down to their core components to ascertain if any breaches have occurred. Samsung contributes its cutting-edge software and hardware advancements, while Microsoft lends its prowess in endpoint management.
What sets this solution apart is its ability to function seamlessly, irrespective of network connectivity or device ownership model. Unlike other attestation tools that rely on network links and cloud services, this one boasts unwavering reliability.
Scheduled to launch alongside Microsoft Intune – a comprehensive endpoint management service catering to both corporate and BYOD setups – this collaborative solution will cater notably to select Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets, particularly those deemed “Secured by Knox.”
So whether you’re stationed in a bustling coffee shop, your own office space, or even a remote cabin tucked away in the woods, rest easy knowing your device is cocooned in safety.
In the world of business, your phone exceeds its role as just a communication tool. It’s your fortress of classified (and precious) data. With the combined efforts of Microsoft and Samsung, that fortress just became a lot less vulnerable.
If you’re looking to improve the security of your devices, we’re here to lend a hand. Let’s fortify your digital world together.
