Learn more about what it is, why it&#8217;s becoming popular \u2013 and what you need to consider before rolling it out.<\/p>\n<p>You may have noticed more and more of your employees or colleagues bringing their own computing devices to work\u2014be it their mobile phone, tablet, or laptop. Or perhaps in your company or in other companies you may have seen, they have let people decide which device they prefer because they are used to it at home. You may not realize it, but this is all part of a large trend called the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gartner.com\/press_releases\/asset_138285_11.html\" target=\"blank\" class=\"external external_icon\" rel=\"nofollow\">&#8220;consumerization&#8221; of IT<\/a>, in which the influence of consumer technology is being increasingly felt in the workplace. With the wide availability of cheap but powerful mobile devices and online services, a growing number of people are being exposed to the latest technology at home first\u2014adopting them at a rate faster than most businesses are able to manage. This flips on its head the old paradigm in which traditionally new technologies would be rolled out to businesses first, before they would find their way to consumers.<\/p>\n<p>This trend, plus the increasing sophistication of young workers today and their frustration with the tools available to them at the office, is pushing some companies to adopt a &#8220;bring your own device&#8221; or BYOD policy at work. They are not alone. According to research <a href=\"http:\/\/www.globalservicesmedia.com\/Strategies-and-Best-Practices\/Emerging-Models\/Gartner-Releases-Business-Predictions-for-2010\/24\/32\/0\/GS100118527945\" target=\"blank\" class=\"external external_icon\" rel=\"nofollow\">by technology analyst group Gartner<\/a>, end users, not the IT department, will soon be responsible for 50 percent of business IT procurement decisions\u2014ultimately bringing and running their own systems on company networks. Meanwhile, according to management consultants Accenture, around one-third of today&#8217;s younger generation of workers (a group called &#8220;millenials&#8221;) not only wants to use the computer of their choice at work, but also wants control of the applications they use too.<\/p>\n<p>The benefits companies cite to adopting a BYOD policy are many, among them:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Savings on capital expenses and training costs in using company equipment<\/strong>\u2014compensating employees instead via other means such as flexible work hours, subsidized purchases, insurance, and other benefits.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Less management headache<\/strong>\u2014effectively letting employees decide what to use releases the company from some overhead and management responsibilities.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Improved employee satisfaction<\/strong>\u2014by giving employees the freedom to use devices and applications that they prefer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, before you consider letting employees bring their own personal technology to the work place, be aware that there are also disadvantages, and sometimes very real dangers in doing so. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Non-standardization of hardware, operating systems, and applications.<\/strong> If your business operations require that some equipment is integrated with others, then BYOD can in the long run actually increase IT management costs and decrease efficiency.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exposing your network to malware or security vulnerabilities and breaches.<\/strong> When your employees bring their own devices to work, you lose important control over their security. Consumer devices often don&#8217;t employ comparable bullet-proof security technologies mandated by businesses.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leakage of confidential or proprietary information.<\/strong> Employees will naturally do what they want with the data on their devices, even if it doesn&#8217;t belong to them, or it&#8217;s against company policies. Employees can also lose precious company data when they misplace or damage their personal devices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lower economies of scale in procurement.<\/strong> Essentially because everyone is buying devices on their own, you miss out on the chance to consolidate purchases and lower purchase costs for everybody.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Have you adopted a BYOD policy at work?
