Mobile XI Recommendations

For machines and devices running Mobile XI, the application provides users with access to an important asset of the organization: its GIS data. As such, it is important to secure that data against theft.

For Windows, refer to Microsoft's documentation on BitLocker.

Recommendations specifically for securing client devices:

  1. Enable full disk encryption on devices that host Solution Center.

  2. Configure screen lock timeout for a maximum of five minutes.

  3. For Windows specific settings:

    • Do not grant local administrator privileges to end users.

    • Do not grant end-user account permissions to install applications.

    • Use application “allow-listing” to permit only approved applications or executables to run.

    • Use real-time endpoint protection to detect unauthorized changes to installed components.

    • Schneider Electric recommends you give users access only to secure locations determined by your IT department. File permissions are managed by the user’s Windows profile.
