The UK National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) issued an alert yesterday, prompting all organizations to patch the critical CVE-2020-15505 remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in MobileIron mobile device management (MDM) systems.
An MDM is a software platform that allows administrators to remotely manage mobile devices in their organization, including the pushing out of apps, updates, and the ability to change settings. This management is all done from a central location, such as an admin console running on the organization's server, making it a prime target for attackers.
