While protecting the desktop environment isn't difficult to achieve with the host of available tools, protecting mobile devices from hacking has always been more of a challenge. One solution that can help is remote filtering. This technology, from companies like San Diego-based Websense, offers protection to remote laptops from phishing, spyware, malicious mobile code and inappropriate content. But even more importantly, it allows corporations to apply the same policies and level of protection to laptop users as desktop users, whether they are inside or outside of the organization's network. The technology also offers the same level of reporting for remote laptop users as corporate users.
