There is another, often overlooked, area where a lot of important corporate data is stored – **corporate mobile devices.** Right now, every individual [owns](https://www.globalwebindex.net/blog/digital-consumers-own-3.64-connected-devices) 3.64 devices — smartphones, tablets, and laptops — and the number [will rise](https://www.mobileworldlive.com/featured-content/home-banner/connected-devices-to-hit-4-3-per-person-by-2020-report/) to 4.3 devices per person by 2020. Although not all of these devices are work related, the average employee in the U.S. uses at least three devices per day for work activities, and at least two of them are mobile – smart phones and tablets. Does your IT department include mobile devices into business continuity and data protection strategy? Why not? The data on your CEO’s tablet might be worth more than some of your servers. Losing that data can affect your company’s finances, compliance, or business continuity. Now it is time to include [enterprise mobile backup](https://www.acronis.com/en-us/business/enterprise-solutions/mobile/) in your data protection strategy.
