"User adoption of Samsung mobile devices is exploding around the world and, with the KNOX, we are establishing a new standard for mobile security in the enterprise," said Jae Shin, Vice President, B2B Business Group at Samsung Electronics. "Our partnership with MobileIron enables organizations around the world to confidently welcome Samsung devices into even the most highly security-conscious environments. With the KNOX and MobileIron, we deliver the security that the IT department requires without compromising the experience end users love."
Samsung KNOX creates a distinct work persona that is entirely separate from a user's personal content and apps. Users can switch easily between environments, increasing their productivity and efficiency. The KNOX keeps personal data private because it is entirely separate from the work environment. As a result, there is no risk of the user losing personal data or the corporation losing business data. MobileIron and Samsung deliver this experience through the KNOX containerized environment from Samsung and end-to-end management of enterprise apps and documents by MobileIron.
"Samsung KNOX is a major step forward in establishing Android as a core computing platform for business, and we are pleased to be part of the KNOX ecosystem," said Bob Tinker, CEO, MobileIron. "What distinguishes KNOX is Samsung's commitment to meeting and exceeding the security needs of the most exacting enterprise and government organizations. Our customers are very excited to trial and deploy the KNOX."
