Beyond BYOD: Where Privacy meets Business Needs

Bring Your Own Device – stroke of luck or unpredictable risk of incompliance? Companies might save money or more likely at the end even pay for BYOD. Employees might be happy to use their expensively purchased tablets & smartphones for work. But how about control and protection? Without personal data being controlled and protected, data protection and compliance is at risk. Finally, regulation is needed, where freedom of use is provided. Wipe-out-rules are essential, informed consent inevitable. Is it all worth it and if yes, what are the dos and don´ts?
