Dear Friend,

I have a small favor to ask that in the end will benefit you. But first, let me explain what's led up to this...

Over the last year, we've seen a dramatic increase in the number of clients who are inquiring about how to access their desktop files, email, etc. on a mobile device - be it an iPad, smartphone, laptop, tablet, etc.

We've also seen an increase in the number of clients who allow employees to bring their own devices to work and/or access the company network from home using their personal computer or phone. If you’ve been following along in the last 2 issues of this newsletter, you’ve probably noticed.

Naturally, this raises a NUMBER of questions and concerns over security:

  • What's the best way to allow remote access to company data?
  • What are the best policies for privacy and cloud computing?
  • How can we ensure our compliance with data breech laws and regulatory controls?

That's why we've decided to hold a series of educational seminars (or webinars) on this topic in the coming months to answer important questions and to guide clients to use safe, best practices when introducing mobile devices onto their network.

However, I'm struggling to narrow down the topic and the questions we should address during these sessions since mobile and cloud computing are such big topics.

So instead of just guessing, I was hoping you could do me a favor by answering the following 2 questions:

"What is the single most important question you would like us to address on the topic of mobile and cloud computing?"

Second...

"What's the single biggest CONCERN you have about cloud computing and employees remotely accessing your network with mobile devices?"

If you would just take a moment to send me an email and give me some direction in this I would be grateful.

Many thanks!
