Description
Many employers allow their employees to bring their own smartphones, tablets and laptops to work and to use them for business. While “bring your own devices” might seem to present cost savings, some states are requiring that employers reimburse employees for the use of their personal devices for business. These devices also pose a challenge for employers if they are able to connect with the employer’s computer system. Employees may have access during non-working time to important business data, and they may work “off the clock” while accessing that data. When such employees leave the organization they may be taking important confidential information with them on their devices. This presentation will address how to minimize the risks of employees’ use of their own devices at work.
