A company wants to let employees work anywhere on its large corporate campus but prohibits removing company-issued mobile devices from the premises. Which mobile device management feature should the company deploy to enforce this requirement most effectively?
Geofencing lets administrators define a virtual perimeter around a physical location (such as the boundaries of a campus) and automatically mark a device as non-compliant or trigger alerts when the device exits that area. Geolocation or location tracking can show where a device is, but it does not, by itself, enforce policy when the device leaves the site. Remote wipe, content management, and other MDM features focus on different use cases and would not directly stop devices from leaving company grounds.
