Mobile Guardian Manage is a cloud-based Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution tailored for schools and organisations. It simplifies device management across Android, iOS, and Chrome OS, offering administrators control over device security, application management, and web usage. Coupled with the Safer solution, it creates a secure environment for users by enforcing robust policies and web filtering.
By supporting multiple platforms, Mobile Guardian Manage ensures efficient device deployment, configuration, and monitoring, resulting in a productive and safe learning environment for students and staff alike.
Key Features:
- Cross-Platform Management: Manage Android, iOS, and Chrome OS devices from a single dashboard. This allows schools and organizations to enforce consistent policies, regardless of the operating system. By managing different device types centrally, administrators can reduce complexity, enforce compliance, and ensure that device settings are uniformly applied.
-
Application Management: The platform allows administrators to install, uninstall, and manage applications on enrolled devices. This ensures that students and staff have access to the required tools while restricting unauthorised or distracting applications. App management includes:
- Bulk app deployment.
- Restricting or whitelisting apps for specific user groups or device types.
-
Web Filtering: A key feature to promote safe internet use within schools, the platform allows web filters to block inappropriate content. Administrators can configure:
- Category-based filtering (e.g., social media, gaming, explicit content).
- Safe search enforcement for search engines and YouTube.
- Custom website whitelisting or blacklisting.
-
Device Security: Mobile Guardian Manage provides robust security controls for enrolled devices. Features include:
- Enforcing password policies (e.g., complexity, expiration).
- Remote locking of lost or stolen devices.
- Remote data wiping to protect sensitive information. These security measures help safeguard both student data and organisational resources, reducing the risk of unauthorized access.
-
Reporting and Analytics: Detailed reporting allows administrators to track device usage, monitor app activity, and review browsing history. These analytics help:
- Gain insights into device usage patterns.
- Identify potential security risks.
- Monitor policy compliance and classroom engagement.
Deployment Steps:
- Account Setup: Begin by signing up for a Mobile Guardian Manage account. The account will grant access to the platform's management console, where administrators can manage all enrolled devices and apply policies.
- Device Enrollment: Enrollment methods vary based on device type.
-
Policy Configuration: After enrolling devices, administrators can define and apply policies that govern:
- Device restrictions (e.g., disabling cameras or screenshots).
- Network settings (e.g., configuring Wi-Fi networks).
- App usage rules and web filtering. These policies are applied automatically when a device connects to the Mobile Guardian platform, ensuring compliance with organisational standards.
