Why Should you Attend
As consumer technology introduced into the work environment, organizations are faced with - in many cases - radically modifying their device ownership policies. Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is an alternative strategy that enables employees, business partners and others to use a personally selected and purchased client device to conduct the company´s business by using the company´s enterprise applications and data. The scope can include basic phones, smart phones, tablets, and even PCs. This webinar explores the lessons learned from BYOD programs in enterprise and government. This webinar will outline some of the practical issues surrounding BYOD to gain insight into how employers can protect themselves and meet Board due-diligence guidelines with an effective BYOD policy.

Who will Benefit This program will benefit attorneys and other compliance professionals in organizations where employees regularly use mobile electronic devices. This would include representatives from the HR department and the IT department as well as policy committee members and senior management. Given the degree to which BYOD-related issues and programs touch on a wide variety of divisions within an organization, this program would benefit almost anyone with responsibility in this area, whether their organization has a BYOD program or is in need of one. Realistically, ALL organizations - public, private, profit or non-profit, large or small - will confront BYOD in the very near future. It also would be useful to individuals who want to learn more about the repercussions of their own use of personal devices for work purposes.
