Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is the catchall phrase to describe the phenomenon of employees bringing personal mobile technology and other computing devices into the corporate IT environment. It impacts organizations of all sizes and carries with it a unique set of challenges and business impact.

This white paper describes the market drivers behind the BYOD phenomenon, the challenges presented to an organization, a strategic outline to manage BYOD, and how WatchGuard helps to create a secure BYOD ecosystem.
