BYOD

Some organizations have implemented bring your own device (BYOD) policies. This enables organizations to save money on equipment costs because employees are now using their personal computers. At the same time, BYOD policies also present challenges for organizations. Now organizations are in the business of supporting personal computers.

Integrate at least two quality, academic resources (in addition to your textbook) on BYOD policies and the challenges associated with them. You may also use government websites, such as Cybersecurity from the National Institute of Standards and Technology.

Please respond to the following in a post of at least 200 words:

1. Describe some of the specific challenges (for example, risks of employees going to various websites, viruses, and legal implications) associated with BYOD policies.

2. Recommend methods organizations can use to address the challenges associated with BYOD policies.
