Cloud Mobile Device Management
ESET Cloud Mobile Device Management (Cloud MDM) is an add-on feature native to ESET PROTECT. ESET Cloud MDM provides Android and iOS mobile device management and mobile security administration. You need ESET Mobile Threat Defense to manage mobile devices via ESET PROTECT.
ESET Cloud MDM provides an agent-less solution where the management Agent is not running directly on the mobile device (to save battery and performance of the mobile device). Instead, the management agent for the mobile device is virtualized in the ESET cloud.
ESET manages security and connection certificate management, so the administrator does not have to worry about the certificate renewal process or if the certificates are up to the latest security standards.
Verify that your mobile device OS version is supported for Cloud MDM management and that you meet the network requirements.

The enrolled mobile devices must connect to ESET PROTECT every 120 days to prevent connection problems. You can see this information in the link from the enrollment email or QR code. Do not enroll a spare device in advance. We recommend only enrolling a spare device that will be used within 120 days. |
