Embracing Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)

The role of the IT department is continually redefined as successive generations of technology force their way into the workplace in response to economic pressure, user demand, and desire for competitive advantage. This has never been more obvious than with the current growth in “bring your own device” (BYOD) programs, which are rapidly spreading through the business world, bringing new headaches and opportunities.

In this paper we’re going to consider the three major flavors of BYOD:

• Bring your own laptop
• Bring your own tablet
• Bring your own smartphone

We will look at BYOD from multiple points of view, including the need to balance access (user productivity) with security (corporate liability, data sovereignty, privacy and liability), and we’ll make recommendations about approaches that enable you to embrace BYOD in a way that makes sense for your organization.
