Definition

Mobile Device Management (MDM) refers to the administration of mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops, within an organization. MDM solutions enable IT departments to enforce security policies, manage device settings, and ensure compliance with corporate standards. These tools often include features for remote device management, application distribution, and data protection to safeguard sensitive information on mobile devices.
