Dell White Paper Sample

Across industries and in organizations of all sizes, mobile technology is breaking down the borders of business as usual. Employees are taking their work with them wherever they go and expecting ubiquitous network access -- from the conference room down the hall to customer and vendor sites around the world. At the same time, the rapid adoption of mobile devices (such as broadband-enabled handhelds, tablet PCs, and other portable Internet endpoints) in emerging markets such as China and India is contributing to a global explosion in network size.

Organizations are embracing these trends with enthusiasm, encouraging employees to take advantage of the flexibility inherent in mobile computing to work in their own style and on their own schedules. But all this means it is no longer enough simply to equip employees with laptops and BlackBerry devices. Mobile workers need the support of an IT department with a strong, cohesive security strategy. They must be able to access enterprise networks whenever and wherever they need to work. When they have questions, they need immediate IT support that can diagnose and fix problems without delay. And when the organization transitions to new mobile devices, they need the switch to be fast, smooth, and trouble free.
