Leverage Mobile App Vetting to Protect Organizations & Employees

Organizations need to vet the mobile apps their employees use for several reasons:

  • Security: Unvetted apps might have vulnerabilities that could compromise sensitive company data or expose devices to malware and cyber threats.
  •  
  • Data Privacy: Many apps collect user data, sometimes including personal or corporate information. Without vetting, there's a risk of data breaches or unauthorized access to sensitive data.
  •  
  • Compliance: Depending on the industry, there might be regulatory requirements regarding data protection and privacy. Using unapproved apps could lead to non-compliance with these regulations.
  •  
  • Reputation Management: If employees use unapproved apps that lead to security incidents or data breaches, it can damage the organization's reputation and erode trust with customers, partners, and stakeholders.

Overall, mobile application vetting, sometimes referred to as MAV, helps organizations mitigate risks, maintain compliance, improve productivity, and protect their assets and reputation.
