Across the U.S., a wave of new legislation is reshaping how public sector and education organizations manage mobile and endpoint devices. From North Carolina to Maryland, and Minnesota to Montana, states are enacting strict new Mobile Device Management (MDM) requirements to safeguard sensitive data.
If your state hasn’t passed new MDM laws yet, it’s likely only a matter of time.
Why This Matters Now
These laws aren’t just policy updates—they’re mandates with real consequences. They require organizations to prove that all mobile and endpoint devices accessing sensitive data are properly secured, monitored, and managed. That includes smartphones, tablets, laptops, and remote workstations.
For IT and compliance teams, the clock is ticking. Falling behind could expose your organization to serious risks.
The Cost of Non-Compliance
The risks of ignoring these mandates are real—and growing:
- Data Breaches: Unsecured devices are prime targets for cyberattacks, especially in education and government sectors where sensitive data is abundant.
- Hefty Fines: States are beginning to impose financial penalties for non-compliance, and those fines can escalate quickly.
- Lost Funding: Non-compliance can jeopardize eligibility for state and federal funding, grants, and contracts.
- Public Trust: A single breach can erode years of community trust and damage your organization’s reputation.
