Windows Phone Thoughts: Corporate PDAs & Security. What Security?

Mobilemag have posted a interesting article about PDA security: "PDAs have become a daily productivity tool for millions of business users. A new study of PDA users, however, points to a significant risk to companies, as large numbers of employees store company-sensitive information on the small, easily lost or stolen devices with virtually no security protection of any kind."

You don't say? Is the term 'Secure Corporate PDA' an oxymoron? :? I am always surprised by the number of folks that don't secure the information on their PDAs, but according to this survey, I shouldn't be…….

"Among the study's key findings:
- Half of all respondents did not have any kind of security features on their PDAs other than standard power-on password protection;
- 81% of respondents carry "somewhat valuable" or "extremely valuable" information on their PDA;
- 24% of respondents have experienced a loss or theft of at least one of their PDAs;
- 38% access their corporate networks or multiple networks using their device; and
- 60% of all executive-level respondents say their business would be "somewhat" or "extremely" affected if the data on company-issued PDAs were lost."

How does this tally with your attitude to PDA security? Have you had a PDA lost or stolen, do you store company sensitive information on your device? Do you use the built in Pocket Pc security, a more secure add-in program or none at all? Enquiring minds want to know. :wink:
