Frequently asked questions
Why choose Pareto Security over traditional MDM solutions?
Traditional MDM tools take complete control of employee devices, causing frustration, trust issues, and privacy concerns. Our read-only approach delivers the security visibility you need while respecting employee autonomy. You get compliance monitoring without the employee revolt.
How does non-invasive monitoring actually work?
Our lightweight app performs read-only checks of system configurations and security settings. It never accesses personal files, doesn't slow down devices, and can't remotely control or modify anything. Think of it as a security health check that runs quietly in the background.
What happens if a device fails security checks?
You'll receive instant alerts about misconfigurations or vulnerabilities through email, Slack, or Teams. The device owner gets guidance on how to fix issues, but they remain in full control of implementing changes. No forced updates or remote interventions.
Can this work with contractor and freelancer devices?
Absolutely. This is exactly what we designed it for. Contractors and freelancers can install our app without giving up control of their personal devices, while you maintain visibility into security compliance for work-related activities.
How quickly can we deploy this across our remote team?
Most organizations are monitoring their first devices within an hour. The app installs in seconds, automatically starts monitoring, and begins reporting to your dashboard immediately. No complex configurations or IT department involvement required.
What compliance standards does this support?
We generate audit-ready reports for SOC 2, ISO 27001, CIS Controls, Cyber Essentials, and other major frameworks. Historical compliance tracking helps demonstrate due diligence over time.
How much does this cost compared to MDM solutions?
We start with a free tier for up to 5 devices, then scale based on device count. Most organizations find our per-device pricing significantly lower than traditional MDM solutions, especially when you factor in reduced deployment time and zero employee resistance.
What if employees refuse to install the app?
Because our approach is non-invasive and respects privacy, we see much higher adoption rates than traditional MDM. Employees understand they're not giving up control of their devices: they're just allowing visibility into security configurations for work compliance.
