Summary

Mobile point of sale (mPOS) systems have gained popularity among businesses due to their flexibility, faster service, and cost-effectiveness. However, these systems also pose risks such as device loss or theft, malicious apps on the device, and unprotected networks. Mobile Device Management (MDM) software can help mitigate these risks by providing controls for protecting devices against unauthorized access, device encryption, lock and wipe options, application management, and kiosk mode. MDM solutions can also offer asset management systems, remote deployment of new systems, and integration with remote support tools to ensure businesses get the most out of their mPOS systems.
