Google Upgrades Android Security, Management
"Google moved to fortify security and management for Android smartphones and tablets used in businesses, with three new software updates designed to improve productivity for workers using Google Apps for Business and Google Apps for Education."
"While Research in Motion Blackberry smartphones have dominated the enterprise for the last decade, more businesses are allowing employees to bring their personal Android and iPhone devices into the workplace."
"This has forced IT administrators to adapt to workers' device preferences and figure out ways to manage them. Good Technology, Sybase, Mobile Iron and Zenprise are all offering solutions to help these businesses, but Google offer its own management apps for Google Apps collaboration software."
