Summary

Use of personally owned devices continues to grow on campuses. If we don’t support these devices, community members will find their own way to support them, which could put our networks and information at risk. A 'bring your own device' program is about supporting your community in the ways they want to work, teach, and learn by allowing them to use the most appropriate tool for the job, while on the IT side, we keep acquisition and support costs, information privacy, and security—including network security—in check. This session will offer ideas, sample policy statements and guidelines, and lessons learned for campuses interested in implementing a BYOD strategy for mobile devices.
