IT Department have to develop an answer to organize the exponential growth of business and personal data of employees, collaborators, consumers, and not only corporate users.
In most of the small businesses, the employees might own latest and more advanced devices like tablets, Ultrabooks or laptops while their employers provide them with desktop computers which are at least 2 or 3 years outdated. So this would be a good opportunity for the businesses to compete with the rival companies. But there are a set of risks that go along with this concept as well, such as the data risk.
Bring Your Own Device It’s all about Employee Satisfaction and Productivity, not Costs!
BYOD is becoming more popular globally. For instance, a survey indicated that about 28% of the global workforce in 2011 used personal devices for official purposes. This growth of BYOD is creating doubts in the minds of CIOs. Most focus on BYOD has primarily been from a cost savings perspective, however, our analysis indicates there are more important reasons for CIOs to consider.

This paper takes an enterprise architecture approach to describe the IT Security Architecture impacts of migrating from an employer supplied “use what you’re told” (UWYT) model to an employee purchased “bring your own device” (BYOD) model. More and more employees and executives demand the option to use their consumer IT devices to do their work. This blend of work and life, combined with flexible work hours also contributes to an atmosphere where people want to be able to work with the tools of their choice.

Managing applications in the age of BYOA: Reclaiming IT’s strategic role LogMeIn
Two megatrends — the rise of cloud applications and the consumerization of IT — are conspiring to change IT as we know it. And in turn, they are calling into question the value and very relevance of the role of IT, itself. This report is the first in a series of studies designed to explore the state of IT management in today’s “BYO” workplace. Featuring input from nearly 1,400 IT professionals and business professionals, the report focuses on the rapid rise of employee introduced apps, or the bring-your-own-app (BYOA) trend, and explores how consumerized cloud apps have become both a challenge and a blind spot for many IT professionals.
Enterprise Mobility Management and its Challenges - Phdassistance.comPhD Assistance
In recent years, it is observed that there are various Management schemes for managing the devices, data etc. One of the most popular schemes is Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM). This scheme includes several mobile solutions including the solutions for mobile data to voice plans and mobile applications. It has been identified that enterprise management includes applications such as data security, scalability, and regular up-gradation since these applications require device management. Thus it has been asserted that EMM can be envisioned as an inseparable part of the Enterprise mobility ecosystem (Dikhit, 2015). The widespread use of EMM has been a driving force for the enterprises to employ EMM. Mainly, EMM has been found to be associated with aspects such as security and management of data, mobile applications and the devices that are employed.

There is no escaping the "bring your own device" trend, but organizations need to chart a middle path to strike a balance between employee freedom and corporate control over technology.
This paper analyzes the challenges involved with BYOD, the ways to leverage the benefits and also brings out the best practices in order to effectively utilize the BYOD trend.
Read Navigating the Flood of BYOD to find out what challenges to secure your network architecture. When Total Application and Network Visibility is implemented, BYOD helps employees to stay in touch with their personal lives while keeping their business lives separate, preserving the confidentiality and integrity of each—all on the same device. This adds up to productivity, security and morale.
The rise in IT spending is fueling the increased adoption of the bring-your-own-device (BYOD) culture in the region, and given its inherent advantages for employees and employers, BYOD adoption is bound to grow further in the coming years.
However, BYOD adoption is accompanied by IT security risks arising out of lack of awareness about device security among employees. The situation is compounded by insufficient network resources and the lack of formal BYOD policies at organizations to manage security risks emanating from use of personal devices on official servers and networks.
CIOs in the region need to respond by preparing IT networks and formulating a BYOD policies, which are designed to manage this increased demand for BYOD and mobile diversity in the region.
By fostering BYOD with proper management and a BYOD-ready governance model and network, companies can move from merely reacting to employee demand to harnessing a latent — and potent — source of value.

BYOD is a growing trend in corporate environments, where employees bring their own devices to work. Factors that have led to the growing popularity of BYOD include the benefits of work flexibility, increased productivity, and efficiency of employees. Despite these benefits, there are concerns over information security and privacy. Since BYOD allows employees to access organizational data anytime anywhere, it is necessary to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of organizational information resources and assets.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

1. Secure and Efficient ways to
Adopt BYOD in an Enterprise
“BYOD trend has attained a Momentum amongst Enterprises
with increasing demand of Smartphones and Tablet Devices”
Solutions
2. Introduction
As BYOD is getting more and more adoption in the market, the
Enterprises are looking forward for its significant benefits. More and
more of the companies are adopting Bring Your Own Device program
in their work processes.
Rise in Smartphone Adoption Rate = Growing BYOD
Rate amongst Enterprises
BYOD as a concept is getting popular because it allows employees of
the enterprise to work from their mobile devices.
This is useful to increase the satisfaction level of the employee as well
as to reduce the IT equipment acquisition costs simultaneously.
For any enterprise, it is a technical as well as organizational challenge
to integrate BYOD. But at the same time it also helps to increase
3. Growing Adoption Rate of BYOD
According to Juniper research, the number of mobile devices used in the enterprises worldwide will increase and may
be it will be more than double at the end of the year 2014. Moreover, this number will reach up to an approximate 350
million in the year 2017.
The chart below – Employee Owned Devices used at Workplace shows the adoption rate of BYOD amongst
organizations in different countries. According to this chart, globally 28 percent of organizations have already included
BYOD in their system and 34 percent of organizations are expected to adopt it by the year 2013. The graph shows the
same behavior for other countries mentioned.
The chart below shows the expected rise or expected decrease in the use of various employee owned devices in the
enterprises in the year 2013 compared to the year 2011.
It is quite clear that BYOD adoption is quickly spreading across the globe. This is particularly evident from the chart
above where the adoption of tablets is very steep. This growing trend is totally changing the workplace landscape and
so it is time for the organizations to proactively decide their approach on this. These days, workers are demanding for
greater flexibility and facility to access company data from their mobile devices.
According to the latest research done, it is being recorded that approximately 22% of enterprises worldwide have
already adopted tablet devices to carry out their business activities.
4. BYOD concept benefits
“Employees can now work as efficiently in remote places as they can work
sitting at office”
BYOD is not only popular amongst business professionals;
even educational centers are gradually supporting BYOD to
encourage students for bringing their mobile devices in the
classroom. It has provided teachers a more innovative and
interactive way to communicate with students and helped
them to provide more quality education to students. Other
business domains that have adopted mobility and BYOD
concept include Healthcare industry, Advertising industry,
Recruitment industry, and many others.
BYOD benefits several enterprise environments. Some of the common benefits include:
Increases responsiveness Provides flexibility to employees
Decreases productivity delays Reduces device management costs
Reduces company’s investment on devices
BYOD Adoption IT Challenges
“Growing number of smartphones and Tablets in the
enterprises also gives rise to Security threats”
The following threats make security very important for every enterprise:
Unauthorized Unauthorized access Malware infecting Unauthorized access
network access from of organizations' mobile devices and to each employee's
various mobile sensitive data then whole network personal data
devices
5. BYOD Adoption Strategy
While adopting a BYOD strategy, enterprises should consider that they have
enough of resources to manage the use of the employee’s personal mobile
devices.
The top most concern of a company while implementing BYOD is the security
of organizational data and prevention of its loss.
The most important things that are essential to be included in a secured BYOD
solution are:
Centralized functionality
Enhanced security and monitoring for sensitive applications
Simple and secured data-access process
Total control on wired and wireless networks
The above features form the part of a complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) tool that can be leveraged for
satisfying the needs.
The top five reasons why organizations are allowing employees to use their personal devices at workplace are:
BYOD has become latest trend at workplace
Employees traveling can carry out important business tasks on the move
Enterprises can save on IT capital costs
Helps Enterprises to increase business productivity
Keeps employees connected to each other
6. Getting Started with BYOD
The above information gives a chance to have more myopic view of BYOD’s usefulness and challenges, which raises
the need for an expert IT solutions provider.
We deliver you comprehensive solution that addresses key requirements solving the challenges for both IT and end
users. With the growing need of better security and management of mobile devices, we also bring Mobile Device
Management (MDM) services for you. BYOD deployment is not very easy and it asks for thorough industry
