With Android Enterprise, Google took a step towards data protection by separating personal and professional uses (BYOD, COPE). However, to better preserve users' privacy, the administrator of an Android Enterprise device no longer has visibility over the personal environment.
While many threats on Android can operate from one profile to another (this infographic lists them), separating uses in distinct profiles creates a grey area in terms of security. On an Android Enterprise device, the personal profile is an unsecured access point to corporate data.
In this regard, Pradeo's Mobile Threat Defense solution provide an appropriate response to Android Enterprise configurations. It allows to control the security of all the profiles of a mobile device, while strictly respecting users' privacy.

Among other things, the solution enables risk-based conditional access to corporate resources, real-time malware blocking, phishing protection, etc...
