A Toolkit to Implement and Manage BYOD Program

BYOD – bring your own device – is a program that empowers employees to bring their personal devices to work. The company agrees to provide access to its network and IT assets on the personal device. Alternatively, the company issues a mobile device to the employee.

BYOD has become even more important with the rise of the hybrid work model. It’s no longer about just mobile devices but now includes PC/laptops as businesses hire workers around the world. 

Everywhere you go you see people riveted to their personal mobile devices.  This is not just a fad.  Consumers can now enjoy unprecedented  and affordable computing power for communication, Internet access, file-sharing and a variety of other productive tasks at virtually any place and time.  And most employees in today’s companies are more than eager to add work-productivity to this list of benefits.  As a manager of information technology, you are well aware of the benefits that BYOD presents your organization in terms of increased productivity and hardware cost savings for your company.  But you also know the many risks your organization faces to its data security and internal process integrity when every user in your organization has almost complete control over the technology that is critical to your success.  To manage this, your company needs an iron-clad governance plan for mobile device usage.

Toolkit Cafe’s BYOD Policies & Procedures Toolkit provides just the tools and templates you need to easily and effectively manage this process.  You will get a practical framework and methodology for providing the proper rules, documentation and procedures for mobile device usage plus the document controls you need to quickly amend the plan as new technologies and their inherent governance issues arise.

Leave No Stone Un-turned …

The BYOD Policies and Procedures Toolkit consists of 8 distinct forms and templates in Microsoft Word which you can easily customize to meet the needs of your business.  Together, these policies and procedures will help yo effectively manage employees’ personal devices.
