Whether you officially allow it or not, your team is likely checking Slack from their sofas and answering emails in the grocery line on their personal phones. Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is no longer a perk; it’s the standard. But without a solid strategy, it’s also a security nightmare waiting to happen. Here is how to embrace the flexibility of BYOD without handing the keys to your kingdom to every malware-laden app on the app store.

Whether it is a niece who builds gaming rigs or a friend who is good with computers, leaning on a hobbyist for business infrastructure seems like a great way to save a few bucks. In reality, it is one of the most expensive mistakes a business owner can make. Here is why mixing family favors with professional IT is a recipe for disaster.
