Bring Your Own Devices

If you currently allow, or are considering allowing, employees to use their own mobile devices for work purposes, there are some steps that need to be taken to ensure that you’re not at risk for expensive security breaches. By taking the following steps you will allow your employees to stay productive while mitigating risk and ensuring that you have plans and procedures in place in case something should happen:

Create a coherent policy before you invest in technology.
Prepare for all mobile devices, tablets, laptops, and phones.
Make sure enrollment is manageable.
Allow self-service on all devices.
Ensure that a viable wall is built between personal and corporate information.
Automatically monitor mobile devices.
