This curriculum spans the equivalent of a multi-workshop technical advisory engagement, covering the design, implementation, and governance of mobile security controls across device, application, network, and compliance domains in regulated enterprise environments.

Module 1: Mobile Threat Landscape and Risk Assessment

  • Conduct device-specific threat modeling for iOS and Android to identify platform-level vulnerabilities in enterprise configurations.
  • Map mobile attack vectors (e.g., phishing, malicious apps, network spoofing) to existing corporate risk frameworks such as NIST or ISO 27001.
  • Assess the risk exposure of legacy OS versions still in use across the organization’s mobile fleet.
  • Integrate mobile threat intelligence feeds into SIEM systems to correlate device-level anomalies with broader security events.
  • Evaluate the security implications of employee-owned devices (BYOD) versus corporate-owned devices in high-risk departments.
  • Define acceptable risk thresholds for mobile data leakage based on data classification policies.

Module 2: Mobile Device Management (MDM) and Endpoint Enforcement

  • Select MDM solutions based on compatibility with existing identity providers and support for zero-touch enrollment at scale.
  • Configure mandatory device compliance policies such as passcode enforcement, encryption, and jailbreak/root detection.
  • Implement conditional access rules that block non-compliant devices from accessing corporate email and cloud applications.
  • Design exception workflows for temporary policy waivers with time-bound approvals and audit logging.
  • Deploy configuration profiles to enforce secure Wi-Fi and VPN settings across device fleets.
  • Test rollback procedures for failed MDM policy pushes to avoid widespread device lockouts.

Module 3: Application Security and App Distribution

  • Establish a private enterprise app store to distribute internally developed applications with controlled versioning.
  • Enforce code signing and integrity checks for all enterprise mobile applications before deployment.
  • Integrate mobile app shielding techniques such as obfuscation, anti-tampering, and runtime application self-protection (RASP).
  • Review third-party SDKs in mobile apps for data collection practices and potential security vulnerabilities.
  • Implement app-level containerization to separate corporate data from personal data on BYOD devices.
  • Define app update policies that mandate patching of known vulnerabilities within defined SLAs.

Module 4: Data Protection and Encryption Strategies

  • Configure full-disk and file-based encryption on mobile devices in alignment with FIPS or Common Criteria standards.
  • Deploy DLP agents that monitor and block unauthorized transfers of sensitive data to unmanaged cloud storage.
  • Implement selective wipe capabilities that remove corporate data without affecting personal content on shared devices.
  • Enforce encryption of data in transit using certificate pinning for custom enterprise applications.
  • Establish data residency rules for mobile access based on jurisdictional compliance requirements (e.g., GDPR, CCPA).
  • Test recovery procedures for encrypted corporate data when devices are lost or employees depart.

Module 5: Identity, Access, and Authentication Management

  • Integrate mobile devices with enterprise SSO frameworks using modern authentication protocols like OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect.
  • Deploy biometric authentication policies that balance usability and security across different device models.
  • Configure adaptive authentication rules that increase verification steps based on risk signals from device location or behavior.
  • Manage lifecycle provisioning and deprovisioning of mobile access rights through integration with HR systems.
  • Implement fallback authentication methods for mobile access during MFA token outages or device loss.
  • Audit access logs from mobile sessions to detect anomalous login patterns or credential sharing.

Module 6: Network Security and Secure Connectivity

  • Enforce mandatory use of corporate-managed VPNs for mobile access to internal resources, with split tunneling disabled.
  • Configure mobile devices to detect and avoid known malicious or rogue Wi-Fi networks using trusted SSID lists.
  • Deploy DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) or DNS-over-TLS (DoT) on managed devices to prevent DNS spoofing.
  • Integrate mobile threat defense (MTD) solutions to detect and respond to network-based attacks in real time.
  • Segment mobile traffic at the network level using VLANs or zero-trust network access (ZTNA) policies.
  • Monitor SSL/TLS decryption capabilities on mobile devices to support secure inspection by corporate proxies.

Module 7: Incident Response and Forensic Readiness

  • Define mobile-specific incident playbooks for scenarios such as lost devices, app compromise, or phishing attacks.
  • Preserve mobile device logs and telemetry in a centralized repository for forensic analysis and chain-of-custody requirements.
  • Conduct live forensic acquisition of iOS and Android devices using approved tools and legal protocols.
  • Coordinate with legal and HR teams when investigating employee-owned devices involved in security incidents.
  • Test remote wipe execution timelines and verify success rates across different network conditions.
  • Document incident root causes from mobile breaches to update security policies and controls.

Module 8: Governance, Compliance, and Policy Enforcement

  • Develop a mobile acceptable use policy that specifies prohibited activities and employee responsibilities.
  • Align mobile security controls with regulatory mandates such as HIPAA, SOX, or PCI-DSS where applicable.
  • Conduct periodic compliance audits of mobile configurations using automated configuration drift detection tools.
  • Establish cross-functional governance committees to review mobile security exceptions and policy changes.
  • Measure and report on mobile security KPIs such as patch compliance rate, incident response time, and policy violation trends.
  • Update mobile security policies in response to new device capabilities, OS updates, or emerging threats.
