Mobile Device Management (MDM) in companies becomes more and more important due to security reasons. Since a mobile device-as the term expresses-is mobile, it cannot be controlled by a company and local administrators like stationary equipment. Most of today's mobiles are operated by an Android system. Current MDM-solutions, as well as their implementation and impact on change management, will be discussed. This paper will not provide any recommendations for or against any MDM-system. Instead, the goal is to provide a general How-To, to illustrate what an MDMsystem is capable of, especially when implemented as a cloud-based solution and how to make the best use of it for your company. As an example, one commercial and two open-source systems will be discussed.
