"Mobile Devices Blur Work and Personal Privacy Raising Cyber Risks"

The Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) culture is increasingly being adopted by enterprises to allow employees to use their laptops, smartphones, tablets, and other personal devices for work. Although this culture boosts productivity, it introduces privacy and security challenges. Dr. Kenan Degirmenci from the Queensland University of Technology's Science and Engineering Faculty's School of Information Systems conducted research in which he further highlights how far behind organizations are in addressing the cybersecurity threats posed by the BYOD culture. Organizations are recommended to implement policies to protect employees' data and usage, as well as increase efforts to bolster BYOD security management. This article continues to discuss Dr. Degirmenci's research on BYOD cultures in different countries and the cyber risks associated with this growing trend.
