Enterprise Mobility + SECURITY (EMS)

Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) is a cloud-based offering from Microsoft which combines valuable standalone solutions in a highly discounted suite, licensed on a per user base. EMS integrates Identity and Access Management, Mobile Application (MAM) and Mobile Device Management (MDM) solutions with security solutions for information protection and threat management.

What is Microsoft EMS?

Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) is a set of tools that are deeply integrated to provide you with all you need to administer, provision and secure the devices that are used in your enterprise. With EMS, you can manage smartphones, tablets, and laptops in a single system where you can also manage user credentials, applications and security from a single place.  In a modern workspace where mobility and Bring-your-own-device (BYOD) scenarios gain increasing significance, Enterprise Mobility + Security can help IT administrators meet the challenges that exist between the best possible user experience and productivity and a high level of security, data protection and risk management.

EMS is a great tool for enterprises that want to keep better control of their assets and intellectual property (IP), while minimising the impact of human resources needed. Enterprise Mobility + Security can easily manage more workstations, laptops, tablets, smartphones, and apps with less resources because of its deep integration. Because the tools are cloud-based, there’s no need to worry about versioning, updating or upgrading the EMS platform, eliminating that cost from the equation.
