Mobile Device Management (MDM) addresses the unique needs of a mobile devices. It provides you with real management capabilities, including convenient configuration, self-service tools, and enhanced protection. It also keeps you up to date with best practices. These features are organized into a collection of settings called configuration profiles.
Installing these profiles on your mobile device enables you to connect securely to internal networks without needing to configure the settings on your own.
