Repost, with Comments: Top 5 BYOD Security Trends
The Information Security group on LinkedIn recently published a report that Mobile Enterprise covered, discussing the top 5 security trends around BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) security issues.
What was interesting in the survey was the lack of adoption in creating and enforcing BYOD policies within enterprises. The report states that only 20% of companies have a developed BYOD policy in place. This is surprisingly low given the proliferance of devices, applications and solutions based upon mobile technology. Notwithstanding the productivity increases (the study did state that the #1 trend was improved employee productivity/mobility/satisfaction) there is still a reluctance to fully embrace and deploy mobile solutions. Perhaps we as an industry need to jointly address security concerns?

Repost: Bring Your Own Software (BYOS), Not BYOD, Is Real Challenge (with comments)

An interesting article on new concerns for the CIO--it's not only Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), but BYOS (Bring Your Own Software) that enterprises must now address. Think of the device as a Trojan horse--since once a user brings it inside, it carries not only authorized, but unauthorized access to the network. On the other hand, it does allow a certain level of independence, and innovation, in bringing new technologies and applications into play that may not have had the visibility in the past.
Wonderware's SmartGlance offers smart device-enabled reporting (the BYOD aspect) with rich, intuitive, on-demand information management (the BYOS aspect). It allows users to view real-time data on a tablet or smart phone, to make decisions based on current process status and conditions. SmartGlance brings the best of BYOD and BYOS to users.
