Smart phones such as the iPhone and tablets like the iPad access company email, contacts and calendaring systems, hold Office documents and PDFs with proprietary information, and have access via VPN to the corporate network. It is vital to track, deploy, and manage these devices whether they are provided by the corporation or owned directly by the end users.
