Mobile Device Security Audit Program

Mobile devices are simultaneously your organization's most productive tools and its most vulnerable security endpoints — small, portable, frequently lost, and carrying access to enterprise systems and sensitive data. This Mobile Device Security Audit Program provides a comprehensive framework for auditing your organization's mobile security posture: a device inventory checklist, MDM configuration audit questionnaire, BYOD policy compliance verification, application security assessment, and incident readiness evaluation. The program covers both corporate-owned and employee-owned (BYOD) devices.

The audit framework evaluates controls against mobile security standards from NIST SP 800-124 and CIS Benchmarks for mobile platforms. Configuration assessment covers OS patching status, screen lock enforcement, encryption at rest, VPN configuration, app installation policies, remote wipe capability, and enterprise app store controls. For organizations with a BYOD program, the compliance verification section checks whether existing policies adequately govern the personal device risk. Pair this with the [BYOD Security Audit Program](/templates/byod-security-audit-program) for dedicated BYOD assessment coverage.
