Ivanti announced its participation in the 2024 Verizon Mobile Security Index report, which highlights the latest mobile security threats and offers strategies for protecting organizations. As the Everywhere Work trend drives increased reliance on mobile and IoT devices, the number of connected devices is growing rapidly, leading to higher security risks. With less-secure devices connecting to business networks, mobile security must be a priority. Now in its seventh edition, this year’s report extends beyond employee mobile usage to address the expanding role of IoT devices and sensors and the associated security challenges.
The Verizon Business 2024 Mobile Security Index report helps inform cybersecurity decisions for leaders of businesses of all sizes and in key sectors. As mobile and IoT threats rise, the need for robust security measures has never been greater. The report identifies top mobile security threats across the evolving threat landscape.
“We are delighted to collaborate with Verizon on their annual Mobile Security Index report. Our contribution aims to shed light on the dynamic and evolving mobile threat landscape—specifically as it relates to edge devices,” said Chris Goettl, VP Product Management at Ivanti. “Edge devices are an appealing target for sophisticated cyber attackers because they are hard to fully monitor and serve as entry points into an organization’s network – which can result in data breaches and significant operational disruptions. This report identifies trends in threat actor behavior and how security professionals can safeguard their organization and better understand the various threats to their mobile environments.”
As with previous reports, it’s been a collaboration with leading industry players—including Lookout, Jamf among others.
“The insights and analysis from Ivanti for the 2024 MSI underscore the growing risks in mobile and IoT landscapes,” said Mike Caralis, VP of Business Markets, Verizon Business. “Ivanti’s deep comprehension of the intricacies and risks tied to mobile and IoT devices has significantly enhanced this year’s report.”
In addition to the report, experts from Ivanti and Verizon will be hosting a webinar on minimizing risk to get better visibility and control on September 19 at 2:00 p.m. CDT. To register for the event, please visit here.
