What MDM Does and Does Not Control
Staff resist MDM because they assume it means IT reads their messages. Being precise about the boundary is what makes a rollout succeed.
- 01It does: enforce encryption, screen locks, OS versions, and push apps and Wi-Fi profiles centrally
- 02It does: wipe a lost device, or remove company data from a personal one
- 03It does not: read personal messages, photos, browsing history or call logs on a personal device
- 04It does not: replace antivirus, backup, or a helpdesk. MDM is control, not protection on its own
