Architecture is the translation of strategy or business intent. To be successful with a BYOD strategy, the solution design needs to optimize for a strong separation between the personal and professional on the same device. A recent KNOX story showcases a design that aims for protecting the device as a whole, with insufficient granularity to enforce sufficient isolation within the device. This design may fall short on delivering a successful BYOD strategy for enterprises. Recently, security researchers at Ben Gurion University (BGU) reported a vulnerability in Android and KNOX that allows a malicious application residing in the user area to capture and expose all communications from the phone, including the secure container, putting all non-encrypted traffic at risk...
myIdentities: The Benefits of Multiple Personas
Realizing the urgent need for Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) as well as additional tele-communication applications, Movius, a global leader in value-added communication services and Cellrox have decided to team up to provide a cross-carrier multiple identity solution called myIdentities.
Perfect timing too, because according to British Telecom’s research report “ReThink the Risk”,, out of more than 2,000 IT decision makers and users across 11 countries, 82% of companies say they already allow BYOD or will do within the next 24 months. Despite its growing popularity, BYOD is associated with complexity and security risks for an organization’s sensitive data and systems, necessitating a smart solution that combines pro-active security and ease of use...

Don't Weigh Me Down: Performance Matters
Virtualization is the future of today’s BYOD market. Virtualization introduces separated multi-personas to represent one’s business and personal contexts. But the good ol’ virtualization - the one we already know from servers and desktops - can be a double-edged sword that sacrifices performance to provide the needed separation. Traditional virtualization is just too heavy-weight and resource-consuming to deliver acceptable performance on mobile devices...

Now, enterprises must adapt to a constantly evolving slew of new devices and keep all of them securely and consistently connected, even while these devices blur the line between "work machine" and "personal machine"...
Welcoming The Modern Worker
People are more savvy about their devices, and don't want to part with their personalized smartphones or tablets. As the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) culture is increasingly becoming an accepted practice for both small businesses and enterprises alike, businesses need to adapt to a variety of devices to keep their workers connected when they are in the office, at home, or on the road. However, this presents a serious problem for employers who need to protect company information and still give employees the convenience of their own devices...
