ManageEngine, the enterprise IT management division of Zoho, has integrated its flagship unified endpoint management solution Endpoint Central with mobile threat defence solution Check Point’s Harmony Mobile to help IT security teams automate the remediation of mobile threats.
ManageEngine said the expanding mobile workforce gives cybercriminals more opportunities to exploit mobile devices and organisational networks through malicious activities.
According to Check Point's 2023 Cyber Security Report, one in 10 organisations were hit by mobile malware in 2022. These threats are only likely to increase in the coming years, requiring security teams to put a robust response mechanism in place.
The integration addresses the increasing number of mobile threats that continue to circumvent OS-native security measures.

These threats range from traditional malware to more sophisticated phishing attacks and spyware.
ManageEngine said the integration streamlines processes for mobile threat detection, prioritisation, and remediation.
"In our journey to equip IT security teams to fight against the evolving threat landscape, we have been offering a wide range of security solutions from a unified platform," said ManageEngine vice president Mathivanan Venkatachalam.
“This integration empowers organisations to identify and remediate device, network, and app-based threats across all enterprise endpoints while maintaining operational efficiency,” said Check Point head of business development Jason Min.
