This will make half of the world employers--according to Gartner--impose mandatory BYOD policies by 2017. Keeping this in mind, the next question for enterprises will be about capitalizing on the full potential of BYOD, without exposing them to undue risks.However, this is not an easy task. As boundaries for BYOD programs get complicated, many enterprises are perplexed mainly on the security equation. Even though there are security best practices--from analysts and security firms--around for more than a decade, there is apparently a widespread variation about how companies implement security for BYOD workers. For many companies, Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions that help enable safer BYOD programs--including virtual container approaches, data classification, device integrity scanning solutions, and authentication programs-- are the easiest path forward. Meanwhile, enterprises should also bring multiple stakeholders to the table to confront the risks associated with user-owned device use. While the roadblocks are many, the strong incentives for businesses to invest in BYOD will outrun the security concerns in the long run. For this, enterprises should select a successful solution that strikes a balance between safeguarding security and offering convenience and privacy to employees. On that note, we present to you an edition on BYOD technologies. We believe the insights from thought leaders in the space, coupled with a listing of 20 Most Promising BYOD Technology Solution Providers will help you formulate an efficient BYOD strategy for your organization.Let us know your thoughts.Jeevan George Managing Editoreditor@cioreview.comStriking the Right Balance
