MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. and
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C.,
April 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/
-- MobileIron (NASDAQ:MOBL), the secure foundation for modern
work, and Lenovo (HKSE:992) today announced that the companies are
expanding their partnership to build and bring to market a new
offering that helps companies deliver modern work experiences to
their employees. The offering will combine Lenovo's devices with
MobileIron's industry-leading unified endpoint management (UEM)
platform making it easy for companies to procure both the devices
and software they need to operate securely and efficiently.
Customers will benefit from working with dedicated experts to help
build and deploy an end-to-end solution.
"Lenovo and MobileIron are uniquely positioned to help companies
make modern work a reality," said Igor
Bergman, vice-president and Head of Software, Lenovo. "In
2017, we established a reseller relationship with MobileIron as our
preferred solution. Our next step is developing technology
integrations, such as BIOS-level integration, that will streamline
and improve the out of box experience for our customers."
"We see an opportunity to help our customers move from legacy
technologies to modern management," said Simon Biddiscombe, CEO, MobileIron. "The promise
of modern work is exciting. When companies have the technologies to
get information to people when and where they need it, they
accelerate decision making, improve efficiency, and increase their
competitiveness. We're excited to work with Lenovo as our strategic
partner to transform the way enterprises secure endpoints and
data."
Modern work requires modern security
Modern work is an
environment where people can make better, faster decisions using
whatever devices and clouds they want, and they can work easily and
safely from a company office or a coffee shop. However, in a modern
work environment, corporate data moves outside the data center and
corporate networks. MobileIron establishes a zone of trust around
clouds and Lenovo devices that hold corporate data to separate and
protect business information, and to keep personal information
private. The Lenovo/MobileIron offering will give companies a
simple, efficient way to procure, secure, and manage all Lenovo
devices, and to deploy and secure enterprise cloud services and
applications.
