Mobile device security that encompasses smartphones, tablet PCs and many other forms of wireless devices is the most critical aspect of any enterprises' strategic information systems plan. As employees are increasingly relying on their own mobile devices to provide greater responsiveness and accuracy of communication to do their jobs, and senior executives including CEOs and CIOs need to increasingly manage from these devices while out of the office (Katzan, 2010). Mobility and the security to enable its successful continual operation has now emerged as the highest priority for CIOs in planning and implementing their enterprise-wide IT budgets and spending through 2015 (Katzan, 2010). The foundational concepts and frameworks of mobile device security are customizable to any size of an enterprise network. The scalability and security aspects of mobile device security also have been designed to allow for individualized information and content taxonomies as well. These aspects of customization are necessary for ensuring mobility-based strategies in enterprises continue to stay relevant to the specific needs of an enterprise. Mobile device security is also the single greatest threat to enterprise systems and their confidential, highly valuable data, as any device could potentially be hacked either while in use or after being stolen (Mitra, 2008). In response to the severity of this treat, many CIOs initially banned the use of all mobility devices in their companies, for fear of a data or information leak (Shih, Wen, 2005). This soon proved impractical as many of their competitors actively are using enhanced mobility strategies to attract, sell and serve customers more effectively than those who did not have these specific technologies.

Security breaches often occur due to a mixture of defective communication protocols, lack of awareness of security procedures or recklessness, defective software designs, improper procedures, bad configurations of systems, and so forth (Pedro & Ashutosh, 2010). Organizations, such as the Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria (TCSEC), Information Technology Security Evaluation Criteria (ITSEC), Systems Security Engineering Capability Maturity Model (SSE-CMM), and the Common Criteria have, therefore, formulated a series of standards, or models, and metrics that are intended to tighten security. The purpose of these metrics is to find ways of assessing security lapses and tightening them. Their result has been improved outcome in data safety and security.
