Yep, I saw that.  I know the wipe functionality, but that only scratches the 
surface, and most of the other policy stuff requires Enterprise CALs, which we 
don't have.  I think we're going to end up with more Androids than anything 
else, so third party looks like where I'm going to have to head.

Remote wipe is available in Exchange natively, as are a number of policies.

That being said, the various policies properly implemented in various handheld 
devices varies dramatically. Microsoft only certifies their own devices 
(Windows Mobile and Windows Phone) but does have an ActiveSync Logo Program 
which includes Windows Phone/Mobile devices, iOS devices, Symbian devices But 
no Android devices - they are broken in a number of ways. (As are the iOS 
devices, but not in the ways that are measured by the Logo Program.)

How are you guys managing mobile devices?  We are currently pretty much only 
Blackberry, but when we move to Active Directory and Exchange, BES is not 
coming with us, so we're going to be using Androids, iPhones, and Windows 
Mobile.  I've looked very briefly at Mobile Device Manager, but that's going 
away with Config Mgr 2012, which we will be upgrading to at some point.  We 
will obviously want remote wipe function, and someone just mentioned FIPS to 
me, also, which is an encryption?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I will go back and hit Google again, 
while I wait.

Thanks,

Joe
