Deploying the Harmony Mobile Protect app automatically (Zero Touch Deployment)

This section is optional.

UEM Unified Endpoint Management. An architecture and approach that controls different types of devices such as computers, smartphones and IoT devices from a centralized command point. solutions traditionally prompt the mobile device user to install the application once it is registered. In addition, to get full protection, the user needs to approve the required permissions and profiles. Many users are vigilant about installing new mobile applications or granting different permissions, and as a Security company, Check Point even encourages that. Most of them don't know that the Harmony Mobile Protect app is focused on device characteristics and behaviors and not the content stored on or flowing through the device. Furthermore, some users are incompliant with the company's security policy Collection of rules that control network traffic and enforce organization guidelines for data protection and access to resources with packet inspection., especially when they use their own devices. Therefore, users often decide not to install the app or approve the required configuration. On top of that, users who do agree to install and accept the configuration will not often do it immediately and it will take time until the application is activated. As a result, many devices remain exposed to potential cyber-attacks.

Mobile Security's innovative zero-touch technology allows the Protect app to be installed and activated automatically without any user interaction. The solution leverages Check Point's unique bootstrap technology to establish zero-touch activation.

Zero Touch deployment is optional, if the organization does not want to force Mobile Security to activate itself automatically on employees' devices, please skip this chapter.
