Overview
Mobile Application Management (MAM) and Mobile Device Management (MDM) serve distinct purposes in securing mobile devices and applications within an organization. MDM focuses on managing the entire device, including its settings, configurations, and security policies. In contrast, MAM is concerned with managing specific applications and the data within them, irrespective of the device's overall configuration. Dakota State University can leverage MAM to secure its network by implementing policies that control access to university-related applications and data, ensuring they remain protected even on personal devices. By utilizing MAM, the university can enforce encryption, authentication, and data loss prevention measures within designated apps, safeguarding sensitive information while respecting the privacy of users' personal data. This approach allows for greater flexibility and scalability in securing university resources across a diverse range of devices while minimizing the impact on users' personal workflows and preferences.
