Talk:Bring your own device

Examples

How about some examples of BYOD being used? Such specific butts, universities, or businesses? Then of course a discussion of the arguments for and against BYOD. 02:19, 21 January 2012‎ 75.108.181.26

Incorrect information

The below statement is not strictly true. WPA-Personal, WPA-Enterprise and WPA2-Personal also ensure the three forms of security defined below.

"WPA2-Enterprise is the only level of wireless security that provides all three forms of wireless security: (1) over-the-air encryption, to ensure traffic is protected in transit, (2) user authentication, to ensure an authorized user is accessing the network, and (3) network authentication, to ensure the user is connecting to the real network (and not an Evil Twin network)." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.13.144.116 (talk) 14:27, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(Security wonks have termed it 'Bring Your Own Danger' and 'Bring Your Own Disaster'.[7])

Suggest this be changed to (System Administrators knowledgable on the subject, and not woo-ed by buzz words ie "The cloud" know that this will inevitably lead to data leakage.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.207.124.1 (talk) 11:59, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sentences like this sound more like a magazine article than an encypclopedia entry "Additionally, it is important to consider damage liability issues when considering BYOD. If an employee brings their personal device to work, and it is physically damaged through no fault of their own, should the organization reimburse the employee for the full price of the device?" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.115.155.170 (talk) 19:01, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, that sounds like opinion, not a fact.--Sombodystolemyname (talk) 00:52, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Pruning required

This is an article on BYOD.

I've deleted the references to BYOB, BYOA, wireless security and 'inverse-BYOD'

history

I've got concerns about the following

In 2012 the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission adopted a BYOD policy, but many employees continued to use their government-issued BlackBerrys because of concerns about billing, and the lack of alternative devices.[6]

The cited reference doesn't align with the text, and this looks like selection of an specific article to support a particular POV. There are other reports about the success of the EEOC BYOD program. --SimonBramfitt (talk) 07:29, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What does BRICS have to do with BYOD? One is an economic block consisting of emerging markets, the other a corporate policy on employee devices in the workplace. 199.103.2.101 (talk) 21:36, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

BYOD in schools

I have also seen these types of policies in e.g. secondary schools, although the article discusses the workplace exclusively. Should the article be expanded? Arzg (talk) 05:18, 7 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

BYOD in the classroom with its advantages and disadvantages is a very interesting topic. I would like to contribute to the topic and I know where to get good quotes and references. I'm new to wikipedia editing and still trying to understand the 'etiquete'. Can I write a small text and submit it? shall I do it in the wikipage or in the talk page?

Perhaps BYOD should be banned

I'm not sure if this article is remotely legal everywhere, because it promotes the actual modern slaverny of the poor having to bring or use their own hardware, without being paid for them using their own equipment. It almost looks like this article was written by a management consultant, using a properly provided device.
