# Headwind MDM

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/538635/Headwind-MDM

> Headwind MDM is an open-source mobile device management system designed for managing Android enterprise devices, including tablets, smartphones, kiosks, digital signage systems, TV boxes, and handheld barcode scanners. It is suitable for businesses requiring centralized control over Android device fleets, particularly in environments with unattended devices or private networks.

The platform includes group-based policy management, allowing administrators to configure work profiles and apply consistent settings across multiple devices. Device enrollment is facilitated through QR code scanning for quick configuration. Features include remote device monitoring, status tracking, location monitoring, screen mirroring, remote app deployment and updates, log collection, web traffic control, and kiosk mode for single-task operation. The enterprise version offers additional security features such as device lock, factory reset, unattended remote control, and enhanced safety measures for Samsung Knox devices.

Headwind MDM can operate as a standalone solution deployed on premises, functioning within local area networks, virtual private networks, or environments without internet connectivity. It uses encrypted protocols and signatures to protect data and supports integration into Android Open Source Project firmware. The community edition is available as open-source software, while enterprise licenses include features such as user permission restrictions and support for custom Android devices.
