The webcast had a lot of great information about how organizations are setting up and managing their mobile access policies.  Here are a couple of key takeaways:

1.  Who is most concerned about mobile access policy?

Security Analysts >> CISOs >> CIOs - the focus is coming from the risk and security office - so what does that mean for the IT teams?

2. How important is mobile policy?

77% said "Critical" or "Extremely Important" - so this means mobile access policies will get a lot of attention.

 3. When asked about the state of their mobile policies:

Over 35% said they didn't have a mobile access policy and another 35% said they simply ask their employees to sign a usage agreement.  So basically ~70% of the respondents were not actively managing or monitoring mobile access.

Be sure to watch the webcast replay for all of the details.

Box, Oracle and RSA were all co-sponsors of the survey and webcast and all were invited to give a brief presentation at the end.
