Ooredoo offers businesses new level of mobility and data security


(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Ooredoo is implementing Citrix XenMobile Mobile Device Management (MDM) at Ooredoo Data Centre, to offer businesses a "new level of mobility and data security" across their organisations.

MDM is a comprehensive solution to manage mobile devices, apps, and data. Employees can have single-click access to all corporate services across any device, while the IT department enjoys full control over how these devices access information, with full security, configuration and support capabilities.

As a result, companies that deploy the MDM service from Ooredoo will be able to deliver a virtual office experience for employees, where they can access e-mail, data-sharing and support applications from any mobile device, wherever they are - while the company still enjoys full peace of mind. The service has the capacity to ensure that material is never accessed or shared outside of Qatar - an important security feature.

The implementation is the latest innovation to be made available at the Ooredoo Data Centres, which is the most sophisticated and advanced compliant data centre in the region.

Ooredoo Qatar chief operating officer Waleed Mohamed al-Sayed said, "At Ooredoo, we are offering next generation smart services that enable Qatar's companies to deliver better-than-ever performance, using our bigger, faster network. The new MDM solution at our Ooredoo Data Centre will meet the compliance and control needs of enterprises in Qatar, while offering employees the freedom to access essential work information on their own personal devices. This is the first time any organisation has offered this service in Qatar, and we believe we will see strong demand."

The MDM solution solves a key problem that faces companies in key industries in Qatar. Until now, companies had the choice of either securing and managing all devices that access company data, or forcing employees to use different devices for different activities. Either approach reduces productivity and increases complexity for IT departments.

The new MDM service offers an integrated approach, which enables IT teams to be able to secure and manage mobile devices, apps and data from one centralised point, and set app and data policies based on device ownership, status or location.
Ooredoo is offering a simple "Pay As you Go" model for the service, to reduce cost and complexity, and to enable companies to scale up and down as they want, depending on how many employees need to access vital data from their own devices.
