Stopping data loss That model doesn’t work in the mobile and cloud era because users can access data by downloading any app that uses the Cloud service, authenticate to it, and share it with other personal apps. For example, an employee could use a friend’s device that is not managed by their company to access Salesforce, download customer data, and upload it to their personal cloud storage account. To prevent this, companies need to ensure that not only are the device and user authorized, but that the app is too. With MobileIron Access, for the first time, enterprises can ensure that only approved apps with data managed in the enterprise sandbox can connect to the cloud service via mobile devices.
