BYOD is now being trialed at a U.S. school as a pilot program.
Bring your own device (BYOD) schemes remain contentious in both educational and business networks.
In schools, who pays for theft, loss or damage? Can schools force parents to pay for devices as well as the yearly bill of school uniform and text books?
Are parents happy with the prospect of their children taking expensive products in to school, where damage is possible?

Employees are increasingly using (and demanding to use) their personal devices to store and process their employer's data, and connect to their network...
Even if cost-savings is not the goal, most companies believe that processing of company data on employee personal devices is inevitable and unavoidable. Unfortunately, BYOD raises significant data security and privacy concerns, which can lead to potential legal and liability risk.
Many companies are having to play catch-up to control these risks.
This blogpost identifies and explores some of the key privacy and security legal concerns associated with BYOD, including “reasonable” BYOD security, BYOD privacy implications, and security and privacy issues related to BYOD incident response and investigations.
Take the example of company-owned laptop issued to an employee. When it comes to security, the company can:

These days, a Web app can be malware. Here’s what you need to know about this emerging threat, and what to watch for.
Tim Keanini, CTO of nCircle, says cyberattackers are talented, creative developers who are motivated to find innovative ways to part you from your money or information.
Typically, a malicious Web app is a form of Trojan horse: The app claims to be something else--and it may in fact run some legitimate utility or application--but once you click it, it runs malicious code in the background that may compromise your system or secretly download other malicious payloads from the Internet.
===> Don't assume that you're safe if you avoid Microsoft Windows. Web apps do frequently target specific vulnerabilities, and Windows is often a primary focus, but Web apps--both benign and malicious--are fundamentally platform-agnostic. <===

As ESET's BYOD Infographic shows, BYOD is no LOL matter, bringing with it some serious risks to company networks and data. Based on an ESET Harris Interactive survey.
Another BYOD risk factor is the practice of letting someone else use the device. This could be "just" a family member or friend but it introduces the possibility of that person gaining access to the company network or sensitive company data stored on the device.
===> Furthermore, if this "other person" is not trained in safe computing practices there is a serious risk of them getting the device infected or compromised. <===

Network Security and More
“Nowadays, you have to have a layer past the firewall that we didn’t have to deal with when we simply said no to user-owned devices,” he says. “Now all of a sudden, you have multiple points of entry at different levels of access, and that requires more diligence.” One key to maintaining adequate security, Knezek and other experts say, is to have multiple networks: one for Wi-Fi traffic, one for district business and for other secure information for teachers and administrators only, and one for students and outside users of the district’s Web site.
