The Challenge
Shaheen Group of Institutions deployed approximately 8,000 Lenovo M10 tablets for student learning but lacked sufficient control over device usage. Students were able to freely browse non-educational websites and install unauthorized applications, leading to security risks, distractions, and administrative overhead. Existing MDM controls were not enough to enforce strict usage policies across such a large number of devices.
Our Solution
We designed and implemented a custom MDM-based ecosystem layered on top of Headwind MDM with additional controls:
- Enabled Kiosk Mode to lock devices into an education-only environment
- Built a custom access app to control browsing and application usage
- Implemented website whitelisting & blacklisting
- Enforced policy-based app access for students
- Added remote monitoring, network control, and audit logs for administrators
