  1. Afaria—Mobile Device Management and Security

  2. Agenda The changing face of mobility Mobility concerns Managing the lifecycle Information Anywhere Suite What is Afaria? Integrated management and security Sybase overview Questions and answers

  3. Mobility is maturing • Wireless connectivity is proliferating • End users want convenience, enterprises want ROI • Management and security remain key concerns

  4. What’s driving mobility? The landscape where data is managed has changed Large business is becoming more globally distributed Enterprises are increasingly mobilizing their workforces Mobile application deployment is becoming ubiquitous Front lines are evolving into a mission-critical computing environment Server applications installed in an ISV’s customer sites ISV applications with databases hidden under the covers Mobile applications used by field workers and sales forces Explosive Data Growth Wireless Access Ubiquity Proliferation ofMobile Devices Demand forReal-time Information Mobile DeviceManagement Mobile DeviceSecurity Shifting business needs is driving the requirement for robust mobile device management and security

  5. Mobility brings new challenges • Networked computers • Unlimited bandwidth • No need to prioritize bandwidth • Local support for users • IT can easily get to devices • All Windows PCs • Physical building security • Mobile devices • Bandwidth is limited • Applications get priority bandwidth • No local support • IT may never see devices • Variety of devices and platforms • Easily lost or stolen

  6. Common solutions fall short • Management via application • Limited capabilities with app focus • Insufficient platform management • Poor coverage of mobile platforms • Lack of integration with enterprise infrastructure • Desktop management • Insufficient endpoint security • Built for high-speed constant connection • Poor coverage of mobile platforms • Complex implementation and ongoing use

  7. Managing the device life cycle Re-provisioning Provisioning Update policies Access controls update Security configuration policy Vulnerability assessment Re-image device Redeploy software assets Image-change control Asset and inventory classification Decommissioning Production Device wipe Access controls update Firewall, IPS, NAC, VPN Data protection Inventory and directory update Restore baseline or dispose Logging and policy enforcement Software/app distribution Monitoring Updating Firewall violations Exploit response/statistics Patch management Security updates Remote control/log-in User activity logs Change alerts to administrator Application/settings updates Secure Manage

  8. Information Anywhere Suite • Heterogeneous mobile platform • Broadest support of devices,connections, back ends • Always-available architecture • Online or offline, smart client • Enterprise synchronization • “Enterprise-strength” mobility • Flexible back-office integration • Scales as your business grows • Management and security • Integrated management and security for total protection • Security a part of every component PROVEN, OPTIMIZED SUITE OFLEADING MOBILITY PRODUCTS

  9. What is Afaria? Management + security from a single solution Broad breadth of management Comprehensive Security Manages and secures virtually all enterprise device types Optimized for remote environments Integrated with desktop management Market-leading technology

  10. IDC mobile device management forecast • Excerpts from the IDC report • IDC forecasts the worldwide market for MDM enterprise software will grow to $345.0 million in 2011 • Sybase iAnywhere is the 2006 Mobile Device Management Enterprise market share leader. Afaria has been the market leader since market sizing began • Sybase iAnywhere’s tight integration between mobile device management and security will become increasingly important as enterprises look to turn to one vendor for a mobility suite instead of point solutions to address each issue Source: IDC“Worldwide Mobile Device Management Enterprise 2007-2011 forecast and 2006 Vendor Shares”, Doc #208771, October 2007

  11. What do we mean by manage and secure? • Manage • Remotely distribute software and software updates • Remotely distribute information and content • Remotely track assets, hardware and software inventory • Remotely perform OS and Software patch management • Remotely track software license compliance • Remotely maintain device configurations to corporate standards • Remotely backup and restore critical data • Secure • Encrypt over-the-air/Internet communications • Enforce password policies to secure access to the device • Enforce on device data encryption to secure the data on the device • Remotely enable device kill and data deletion for lost or stolen devices • Remotely deliver Win32 security patch updates • Assures lost or stolen devices are rendered unusable

  12. Mobility concerns Fixes and refreshes Provisioning and recovery of devices Detailed picture of configuration and changes Fixes during pilot phase IT support costs and administrative overhead User productivity and downtime

  13. Mobility concerns Asset visibility Hardware makes, models and versions Devices on lease Software license conformance

  14. Mobility concerns Extended support for business Guaranteed distribution of critical content and documents Automation of business tasks

  15. Mobility concerns End-user satisfaction Reliability Access to up-to-date information Downtime Overall adoption of the solution Visibility to who’s using it and when, and who’s not

  16. Mobility concerns Security Size and portability of laptops and handhelds make devices easy to steal Operation outside of the company increases risk due to the unprotected environment Viruses and other malicious code Software and data not authorized by the company “Off-line” attacks Poor patching and management strategies
