Digital devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops and interactive whiteboards play a centrel role in modern work environments, educational institutions and the public sector, particularly in government agencies and critical infrastructures. They enable flexible work processes and open up new opportunities for collaboration and innovation. At the same time, their widespread adoption brings with it the responsibility to reliably protect sensitive data, consistently enforce security standards and comply with legal requirements such as the GDPR. In addition, measures must be taken to quickly lock or wipe lost or stolen devices in order to prevent data loss.

This is where Relution comes in. With a central UEM platform, businesses, schools and organizations can centrally manage all digital devices, enforce security policies and ensure the protection of sensitive information. At the same time, the platform gives IT teams the ability to automate processes, control data flows and comply with legal requirements. This makes it possible to create work and learning environments that are both more flexible and more secure.

What Are they Key Security Features and Benefits of Relutiuon?

Relution significantly simplifies the management and security of digital devices. Organizations can define centra security standards, automatically configure devices, distribute policies and monitor device status using real-time monitoring. This is particularly beneficial in organizations with heterogeneous device fleets, multiple locations or hybrid work models.

Through features such as disk encryption, VPN integration and automated compliance checks, Relution not only protects against cyber threats but also supports compliance with data protection requirements. In addition, Relution Shield and Relution Decon are available as two specialized security add-ons that take network communication and content filtering to a new level. Furthermore, the central platform reduces administrative overhead and helps standardize IT processes without restricting the flexibility of employees or learners.

What Does Relution Shield Offer for Secure Network Communication?

With Relution Shield, all data traffic from mobile devices can be routed through an encrypted VPN tunnel. An integrated public key infrastructure ensures that authentication is carried out via certificates rather than static passwords. In addition, a compliance check verifies the device status before access to the intranet is granted. This makes Relution Shield particularly suitable for organizations with high network security requirements.

Where Is Your Data Stored and Who Has Access to It?

Relution can be operated either in your own infrastructure or in a German encrypted cloud. In both cases, the data is subject exclusively to European data protection regulations. No Apple or Google IDs need to be stored on devices. Thanks to multi-tenancy, Relution can also be operated in a data center or by the school authority with full data sovereignty. Device data generated by Relution cannot be accessed by Relution itself.

How Does Relution Protect Data Directly on Devices?

For encryption at device level, Relution supports established standards such as BitLocker for Windows as well as Red Hat LVM and Debian LUKS for Linux devices. In BYOD scenarios, strict data separation ensures that work and personal data remain completely isolated from one another, so that in the event of an employee leaving or a device being lost, only the work-related data can be selectively removed. In addition, devices can be locked via remote lock or completely wiped via remote wipe.

How Does Your IT Department Keep Track of Security and Compliance?

Relution provides all relevant information in a central real-time dashboard, through which device status, app status and compliance levels can be viewed at any time. Security policies are distributed centrally via policy and automatically enforced on devices, with automatic actions that can be triggered in the event of a violation. With geofencing, geographic zones can also be defined in which different security policies automatically apply, such as restricted app access or different Wi-Fi profiles outside the company premises. For more in-depth analysis, a Grafana monitoring integration is also available.
