Face it, we no longer have downtime - on a train, in a coffee shop, on an airplane everyone is frantically responding to calls and emails from their crackberry's, Palm's or Iphone's. Companies embrace the mobile device figuring they are getting greater productivity from their workforce. However it seems the Mobile is the Achilles heel as far as security for the organisation goes.
A Recent study on enterprise mobility by MFormation ound that almost 90% of (200 polled) organisations had no process for the tracking of data stored on mobile devices. As well as this 40% were unable to match mobile devices to the correct employee who used it.
Not surprisingly 78% are concerned about mobile data security with 55% believing that data loss through mobile will be a "significant issue".
