Bring your own device (BYOD) is one of the most important developments in enterprise mobility. With the move away from corporate-provided mobile devices, IT departments are now faced with the challenge of developing plans and policies that address this new environment and ensure that security, management and support to whatever level IT plans to provide. However, BYOD is not just about making employees happy in the short run by allowing them to use the mobile device of their choice - IT must also plan for how mobile applications that can enhance productivity and trigger business transformation can be successfully deployed in this new environment.
This session will deal with the need for a sound mobility policy and discuss the trade-offs involved with the various options for how an organization might proceed with BYOD. Those issues will include plans for user training and responsibilities, device certification, software maintenance, support requirements, and the role of mobile device management systems
