About this episode
The episode discusses mobile device security, the challenges faced by IT teams, and the role of Jamf Mobile Forensics in addressing mobile threats.
Mobile device security is the biggest blind spot in most organizations, and most IT teams have no way to investigate when something goes wrong. Chris Deane, Senior Sales Engineer for Jamf Security Products, and Harry Jenkins, Senior Sales Manager for Jamf Mobile Forensics, sit down with hosts Kat Garbis and Josh Thornton to talk through what actually happens when a mobile device gets attacked.
