Google Workspace Mobile Device Management (MDM) – Secure Company Devices

Many employees access company emails and documents from mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Google Workspace provides Mobile Device Management (MDM) tools that help organizations protect company data on these devices.

MDM allows administrators to enforce security policies and control access from mobile devices.

What Mobile Device Management Can Do

Using MDM, administrators can:

• Enforce screen lock policies

• Require device passwords

• Remotely wipe company data

• Block unauthorized devices

• Monitor mobile device access

This helps protect sensitive information if a device is lost or stolen.

Types of Device Management

Google Workspace offers two levels of device management.

Basic Device Management

Basic management allows administrators to:

• Monitor devices accessing company data

• Block compromised devices

Advanced Device Management

Advanced management provides additional features:

• Enforce password policies

• Require device encryption

• Control application access

• Remotely wipe company data

Advanced management is available in higher Workspace plans.
