Description
Wireless access introduces security risks which must be addressed through implementation of strict controls and procedures, such as authentication, encryption, and defining what resources that can be accessed. The organization will define the requirements for connection of mobile devices. In order to ensure the connection provides adequate integrity and confidentiality of the connection, the operating system must enforce these requirements. Rationale for non-applicability: A mobile OS typically does not serve applications to remote clients.
