Security concerns are prompting a rethink of 'bring your own device' policies
While bringing your own device to work might be convenient, many enterprises look set to crack down on the practice, new research shows.
In a survey conducted by Kinly, more than half (52%) of enterprises said they are mulling a ban on personal devices at the office, with laptops, tablets, and webcams all set for the chopping block.
A key factor behind this crackdown is the rise of 'Shadow AV', according to Kinly, which is causing serious security concerns. Shadow AV refers to the use of unauthorized audio-visual equipment and personal tech in the workplace.
