If it is true that survival favors those with the greatest ability to adapt, then organizations need exceptional leadership in order to keep up with innovation in the cloud and mobile markets. Most enterprise organizations are not equipped to refresh technology every year. However, the marketplace is changing and growing that quickly.

EFIIA® has been a thought leader in the mobile and cloud spaces well before buzzwords like “secure containers” or “app wrapping” were conceptualized by large private sector corporations. Our focus continues to be exploring what is realistic in the next 6 months, not regurgitating what happened during the last 18 months.
