Report Summary – Effective BYOD Management: Empowering a Mobile Workforce

This is a summary of the EMA research report, "Effective BYOD Management: Empowering a Mobile Workforce."

Enterprise professionals are increasingly employing personally-owned smartphones, tablets, and laptops to perform business tasks. Even business-owned devices are commonly employed by users to perform personal tasks. Bring-your-own-device (BYOD) processes are increasingly being adopted to isolate, provision, secure, and support business applications, data, and services without limiting any employee’s personal use of the devices. Common technologies employed to accomplish this include containerization, app wrapping, virtualization, and the deployment of dedicated secure applications. This EMA primary research report identifies emerging BYOD requirements and correlates the value of enterprise-class BYOD solutions to help organizations determine the best approaches for empowering end users, reducing costs, and meeting enterprise security requirements.
