A simple idea, endpoint management has grown more intricate over time. In the early days of the bring your device (BYOD) and mobile computing era, it was all about provisioning and controlling the computers and gadgets that individuals use within your organization. Then, the Internet of Things (IoT) greatly increased the level of complexity. Zero trust is now taking the place of perimeter security. Endpoint management has evolved by dealing with growing complexity.
You require excellent unified endpoint management (UEM) solution in the complex world of today.
The heart of UEM in a remote and hybrid world is enabled by mobile device management (MDM) and enterprise mobility management (EMM), which fall under the UEM umbrella.
This wasn’t always the case. UEM, MDM, and EMM used to be three distinct tool, procedure, and policy worlds. But in the UEM category, they have been combined in recent years.
Zero trust is, of course, not technology or a particular collection of tools, but rather a methodology, architecture, and even a mindset. However, UEM is closely linked to zero trust because it requires the extensive management of all devices within the organization.
It’s a cliche to say that perimeter security should be replaced with zero trust, but this is dubious on two points. First of all, trust itself isn’t the issue. Even if you “trust” a single employee or their device, they still can’t access the system without valid identification. Every endpoint constitutes the perimeter, which is still present. In other words, every endpoint serves as a portal for attackers. Every door is kept locked with the zero trust strategy. That door-knocker must demonstrate that they are an authorized user running authorized software on an authorized device. In essence, UEM’s security component involves a method of systematically monitoring those doors.
It makes sense technically. But in reality, keeping an eye on the door means ensuring sure the lock is current and set up appropriately, that activity near it appears normal, that any unusual activity is looked into, and that any risks are eliminated.
Security must be a top priority for UEM because endpoints are where the majority of successful breaches happen.
Good privileged access management (PAM) tools, procedures, and rules are necessary for good UEM. The keys that attackers would love to possess are stored by administrative accounts and privileged users, therefore they must be controlled with particular care.
You will have insight into and control over every endpoint in your business if you use the proper unified endpoint management technologies.
Today’s environment necessitates high-quality UEM because zero trust security designs demand management of endpoint access rights across the enterprise (evaluation, assignment, monitoring, and revocation).
The most cutting-edge UEM solutions employ machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI), which are constantly monitoring behavior for usual and potentially malicious conduct. In addition to enabling pre-programmed profiles, approved software, VPN access, and privileges, advanced automation systems can also enable unexpected actions like deactivation.
Speed is one of UEM’s major advantages. Threats, vulnerabilities, and breaches are easier to spot and react to. Another is the gradual decrease in the cost of ownership as a result of improved endpoint management at scale.
UEM also strengthens your compliance initiatives at a time when breaches of cybersecurity compliance regulations are subject to harsh penalties.
A UEM may push security policies, limits, and encryption to endpoint devices throughout your organization to comply with regulations like HIPAA, GDPR, SOC2, PCI DSS, and others. You can use it to stop users from opening dangerous documents or clicking on random links. Additionally, you can record everything that was limited.
By routinely and automatically checking the position of endpoint devices, UEM enables you to lock and wipe any that have been taken to unapproved places. Similarly, UEM logs on user IDs and enables speedy access cancellation for workers who have left the company or changed positions.
In our complex, hybrid systems, zero trust security, and cybersecurity compliance go hand in hand. You want the security, and you want to document those security measures, which UEM makes possible at scale.
The adoption of portable, wireless point-of-sale systems has significantly increased in recent years, as you may have seen. Advanced UEM systems, which keep the data flowing yet defend the organization and its business data against assault, have made it possible to securely and practically apply this capacity.
These changes in the retail industry are only getting started. Cash registers are being replaced with mobile point-of-sale (POS) systems as part of a major transformation of POS systems.
