# Overview

The *Mobile Device Management* (*MDM)* page allows Administrators to securely and wirelessly manage multiple device types or a mix of corporate-owned and bring-your-own-device (BYOD) through the Faronics Deploy console.

MDM capabilities include updating software and device settings, monitoring compliance with organizational policies, and remotely wiping or locking devices.

Through MDM, Administrators can automate, control, and secure policies on devices connected to the organization’s network.

Devices can also be enrolled as *Lite Devices*, where control and monitoring of device are limited to sending messages, syncing device info, and removing device from the MDM console (but not uninstall the MDM app from the device). Policies cannot be assigned to *Lite Devices*.
