An important part of this undertaking is acknowledging and mitigating the risks the mobile devices can cause in the workplace. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lookout.com\/info\/wp-gdpr-lp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A recent survey<\/a> from Mobile Threat Management Security provider, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lookout.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lookout<\/a> found that 84% of IT executives believe that the personal data accessed on their employees\u2019 mobile devices could put their organization at risk for GDPR noncompliance. With that in mind, businesses should be sure they&#8217;re aware of the fact that mobility presents a GDPR risk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><div class=\"widget\"><div class=\"aside-card\">\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><p><a class=\"speedbump-1\" href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/mobile-device-management\/buyers-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1682\" title=\"MDM Buyer's Guide\" src=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/mobile-device-management\/files\/2019\/02\/mobility-bg-speedbump.jpg\" alt=\"Download Link to MDM Buyer's Guide\" width=\"800\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gdpr-info.eu\/art-17-gdpr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Article 17 of GDPR,<\/a> \u201cthe right to erasure,\u201d states that \u201cthe data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay.\u201d Mobile devices and applications are a potential risk to this article. Employees often access customer, partner, and employee data from their personal devices, which include email, contacts, calendars, and enterprise applications. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Because all mobile applications have not been developed with GDPR compliance in mind, some may not support the right to erasure. Additionally, some businesses assume that Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) or Mobile Device Management (MDM) offers visibility into this possible risk. However, EMM and MDM do not give organizations insight into the ways mobile applications are using data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition to this, malicious applications pose a threat to GDPR compliance. <a href=\"https:\/\/gdpr-info.eu\/art-5-gdpr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Article 5 of GDPR<\/a> states: \u201cpersonal data shall be processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organizational measures.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mobile devices are a big target for cybercrime because of the data they hold, including location, microphone, camera, and photos. These cyber attacks have become easy to deploy, so much so that <a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/backup-disaster-recovery\/3-key-tips-to-protect-yourself-from-ransomware-as-a-service\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">someone could hire a cybercriminal to launch the attack for them.<\/a> Malicious applications can compromise an employee\u2019s mobile device, enabling attackers to gain access to any information on the device, which is a huge risk for GDPR.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mobile devices in the workplace are a necessity, but with GDPR being officially enforced, the game has changed. Businesses with unsecured mobile policies are seriously at risk of having to pay GDPR\u2019s steep fines unless they create comprehensive plans to increase security. By being aware of potential risks, organizations can more easily find a solution and comply with GDPR.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"hr hr\"><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><div class=\"widget\"><div class=\"aside-card\">\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><p><a class=\"speedbump-1\" href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/mobile-device-management\/buyers-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1682\" title=\"MDM Buyer's Guide\" src=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/mobile-device-management\/files\/2019\/02\/mobility-bg-speedbump.jpg\" alt=\"Download Link to MDM Buyer's Guide\" width=\"800\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GDPR has been in effect for over a week now, and organizations are still in the process of becoming compliant.
