Magix Security appointed as MobileIron reseller

July 2012 News & Events

MobileIron has appointed Magix Security as resellers to the South African market. MobileIron was purpose built to manage the risks and threats companies face as their business data moves to a smartphone environment.

“IT departments are struggling to find a balance between letting users make their own choices about the devices and apps they need, and having enterprise-class management and security. With MobileIron, they do not have to compromise on either front,” says Bob Tinker, CEO, MobileIron. “We are excited about the growing business prospects in the South African market and are very pleased to be working with the team at Magix Security to help customers realise their mobile enterprise strategies.”

Magix Security will be selling, implementing and supporting the MobileIron platform so that customers can support both corporate-liable and individual-liable devices. The platform offers true multi-OS management across all of the leading mobile OS platforms including Android, BlackBerry, iOS and Windows Phone.

“As employees of South African companies become more mobile, and use smartphones and tablets to carry out their daily duties, there is a corresponding increase in risk to the company. The MobileIron platform helps companies manage their risks and protect critical information from falling into the wrong hands through the mobile environment,” said Phillip Gerber, MD of Magix Security.
