Episode 5: BYOD [Bring Your Own Device]

BYOD, short for "Bring Your Own Device," refers to the practice of employees bringing their own devices to work for use with company systems, software, networks, or information. BYOD has become a huge trend amongst enterprises, with nearly 1/3 of employees using personal devices at workplaces worldwide. While providing key benefits to companies, including increased productivity, reduced IT and operating costs, and better mobility for employees, using personal devices also increases security risk. BYOD can lead to data breaches, data loss, and increased liability for your small business. In today's episode we discuss successful BYOD implementations and policies that meet the needs of your IT as well as your employees.
