How IT Can Scare Off BYOD Monsters in the Closet (via CIO.com)
Bring-your-own-device has become a reality for IT departments regardless of whether its permitted in your organization or not. IT needs to be proactive and seek out ways to educate end-users on the risks associated with using personal devices for business purposes.. One of my favorite quotes in the article focuses on how organizations can mitigate their risk:
“Make employees understand the goals and risks to the company, which in turn will encourage them to act accordingly. “Entrust” not “Enforce” works like a charm. Ignorance is avoided with training, and intentional violations are avoided by creating a culture of trust and respect within the organization.“
What do you do to mitigate the risk of BYOD in your organization?
