"There are no options for adding removable storage, which in effect provides another layer of protection for users. Apple also compares favourably to BlackBerry insofar as the BlackBerry IT administrator has complete control over the device, whereas in iOS, the IT department can only configure items once the user has supplied their permission."
Previous research from Trend Micro, though, has highlighted some of the risks that iOS devices in the enterprise can cause. For a start, the popularity of the platform makes it a target for cybercriminals.
"Cybercrime is a multi billion dollar industry, funded and resourced like legitimate business operations. The criminal gangs need to know that any investment in their own resources is going to provide a decent return, and the best way of guaranteeing that is by targeting the one large homogenous platform, just as they did with Windows in the 90s. In the mobile world, this means iOS," Trend Micro's Cesare Garlati wrote on the company's Trend Consumerization back in February.
