What is MobileIron?
MobileIron is software used by Mass General Brigham to provide easy access to corporate resources from mobile devices with the ability to manage those corporate applications and their data more securely. It provides many added productivity enhancements such as access to home drives, intranet sites, etc. without the need for a second factor of authentication.

Why Do I Need It?
