Mobile Application Management

Launched 28/01/2025

Introduction

Whenever you access company data through any managed mobile apps you will be prompted to register to a new Mobile Application Management Policy which will apply restrictions intended to protect the data accessed.

What Do I Need To Do?

If you wish to access any of the managed apps with your work account you’ll just need the relevant app downloaded. When you log In the first time after the policy rolls out you’ll be asked to complete a short registration to our new App Protection Policy for Android and iOS. It's a quick and easy process with guidance throughout. 

Once you're set up, you'll be able to securely access and store company data via personal mobile devices whilst keeping your personal data separate. 

The below gives you a deeper insight into what to expect.
