and knowledge they need to be successful."
MobileIron Insight Unchains IT from the Desktop
Insight is a new app for iPads and Android tablets that provides a Mobile
First experience for IT to easily view, monitor, and manage its mobile
deployment at any time, from anywhere. IT administrators are no longer tied to
their PCs and browsers for EMM. With Insight, IT administrators can:
* Search for users and devices
* View devices by platform, ownership, carrier, and compliance
* Drill down into specific device status and configuration information
* Troubleshoot issues
* Assign policies and take basic actions Insight makes mobile IT
professionals more productive by giving them a Mobile First experience for EMM.
You can download the app today onGoogle Play

MobileIron Spaces Protect Privacy and Provide Flexible Delegation
As Global 5000 enterprises embrace mobility, the number of IT professionals
who need to access a MobileIron system increases and their tasks become more
complex. IT responsibilities can differ by function, geography, device
ownership, or a host of other criteria, so traditional role-based access
control is no longer enough. To meet the needs of the global, mobile
enterprise, MobileIron Core will include a new foundational structure called
"Spaces," which will allow global administrators to set data and task
boundaries across their IT staff. With Spaces, organizations will be able to:
* Protect user privacy by ensuring that administrators can only access mobile
data and take actions appropriate to their role. For example, very few, if any,
administrators might be authorized to access application inventory or location
on a particular device. Spaces are designed to ensure that unauthorized
administrators cannot view this data. MobileIron has a history of innovation
for protecting user privacy and, inApril 2014, was granted US patent 8695058
<http://www.google.com/patents/US8695058> for "Selective management of mobile
device data in an enterprise environment".Â
* Delegate administrative permissions for devices based on user or device
attributes such as device ownership (BYOD vs. corporate), country, language,
employee function, OS platform, or device type. An administrator in one country
or business unit should not be able to view or take actions on devices in
another country or business unit. The same administrator may also have broad
permissions on a corporate device but only a subset of those permissions on a
personal device.
* Set priorities across Spaces to eliminate conflicts. For example, the
Executive Space, which represents all executive devices, may have a higher
priority than the iOS Space, which represents all iOS devices. As a result, the
same IT administrator will follow a different set of policies and take a
different set of actions on the CEO's corporate iPad versus the engineer's BYOD
iPhone. Spaces will allow global IT organizations to make each IT function
productive by providing access to the information and permissions it needs to
complete its tasks without compromising privacy or policy boundaries. Spaces
were developed to provide the flexibility and granularity needed to match both
the requirements of a decentralized global IT organization and the complexities
of a mobile deployment.
