Management
Lock Down & Liberate your Endpoint IT Infrastructure!
The problem with enterprise IT security and management is that for too long, the physical computer has been the measure of all things. You manage the computer, you secure the computer, you protect the computer — because it has a direct cost you can assign it and when computers first came out they were outrageously expensive. The assumption has been that if you manage and protect the physical computer, you’re managing and protecting the data. In this age of ubiquitous networks and powerful mobile computing devices that model is as useful as a floppy drive on an iPhone.
At Moka5 we believe it’s time for a change. What really has the value and needs management and protection are the data and applications the device processes, not the device itself. Today’s devices are changing so rapidly and are priced for disposal upon introduction of the next model. Moreover, as the network has become the dominant computing infrastructure, data now exists abstracted from the machine — it follows the user across locations, devices, and even networks.
M5 is the first IT security and management platform that turns the old model on its head and enables IT to retain centralized control, but also distribute trust to the user base for device choices, access times, and locations. M5 creates a highly-elastic enterprise perimeter in which all your critical data and apps can be encrypted and safely delivered to any device as a simply-managed workspace. Using a single console to manage the workspace on all devices, M5 compresses IT management time scales from weeks to hours. M5 containerized workspaces ensure secure access to your corporate assets from laptops, tablets, and smartphones, private or public networks, business or personal. Best of all, unlike legacy VDI solutions, Moka5 lets you work offline so you’re always up-to-date even when you’re on the go.
Creating HQ and Field Equality!
Smaller regional offices, field-based users, and mobile workers in general make it virtually impossible to ensure every device is up-to-date with current OS versions, anti-malware, and application upgrades and replacements. Managing and securing these devices shouldn’t be based on when they come to corporate or during the national sales meetings.
M5 enables organizations to update their deployed software easily and painlessly. Whether you’re updating groups of users, an individual, or the entire enterprise, M5 enables you to adjust your master image once and propagate it to your end-users as soon as they log onto your network. It’s fast, easy, and best of all, can happen any time you need it to happen. In addition, M5 enables you to manage your OS upgrades. Because an M5 workspace is isolated from its host, it can run different OS versions. Even if you’re forced to bring in notebooks with a new OS version (Windows 8 anyone?) — or want to use special machines like Macs or Linux — your end-users can continue to run the applications they need with no retrofitting on IT’s part. Migrate when you’re ready — not when a vendor says you should!
