Keep software current
Follow the organization’s update process for the operating system and workplace applications. Software updates can address security problems and help keep the phone compatible with the tools used for work.
Control access
Use a strong device passcode and the organization’s approved sign-in methods. When biometric access is available, consider how workers will authenticate while wearing their normal protective equipment.
Choose physical protection
Look at the phone’s exposure to drops, dust, and moisture. Review the proposed enclosure against those conditions and check that it fits the exact device. Where an area has a hazardous-location classification, confirm the documented rating and installation requirements for the assembled product.
