As Sri Lankans comply with ‘work from home’ directive, challenges such as information security are coming to the forefront. Unlike in offices, where all devices are protected with special information security solutions, computers at home remain vulnerable to malicious attacks as home wifi networks are usually unprotected.
However, there is a certain section of people in the government, finance, healthcare, education and manufacturing sectors today who are working with great freedom from their homes because they all have one factor in common - Samsung Knox. Since it was first introduced in 2013, Knox has secured over 1 billion Samsung devices and is being used to manage over 50 million devices daily.
Trusted by security experts and government agencies, Knox has helped over 15,000 businesses around the world achieve their goals. Samsung Knox is especially important when you work in a sector that requires the strictest security protocols.
Available on most Samsung Android phones, tablets, and Tizen wearables, Knox is a technology that keeps business and personal data separate on supported Samsung Android devices. People working from home share confidential data with their colleagues on a daily basis and require a secure solution which makes this stress-free.
Office IT teams can deploy Knox to address business needs throughout the entire device lifecycle by remotely configuring a large number of devices and tailoring them to specific needs. This is an ideal facility at a time like the present, where IT teams cannot personally access each employee’s device.
Also, each employee may access company information on different mobile devices – such as laptop, smartphone and so on, and Knox can be used to keep all these devices secure. Moreover, the My Knox portal allows users to access their data from any web browser, as well as locate a lost device, change the Knox password, or even perform a secure wipe if their device winds up lost or stolen.
Considering that customers place their trust in companies to hold their personal credit and health information securely, it is for companies to reciprocate this trust by adopting strong information security solutions.
