Mobile Device Security: Managing Cloud-based & Hybrid Solutions in Healthcare Settings

A National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence Practice and Resource Guide

In the lab at the NCCoE, part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), we built an environment based on typical mobile devices and an enterprise email, calendaring, and contact management solution. Additionally, we demonstrated how security can be supported throughout the mobile device lifecycle, including:

  • configure a device to be trusted by the organization
  • maintain adequate separation between the organization’s data and the employee’s personal data stored on or accessed from the mobile device
  • handle the de-provisioning of a mobile device that should no longer have enterprise access (e.g., device lost or stolen, employee leaves the company.

The NIST Cybersecurity Practice Guide is available as a draft. For ease of use, the draft guide is available to download or read in volumes
