Do your employees use Office 365 apps on unmanaged personal devices?
The BYOD 365 services gives you the ability to secure company data without managing your employee’s personal devices.
We consult with the key stakeholders to develop a BYOD policy with appropriate security for each group of employees and we deliver a working configuration in your Microsoft 365 tenant.
Your employees don’t want their personal devices managed by your company. They perceive this as an invasion of their privacy.
But, they want to access their work email so they use the native email client, or they download Outlook from a public app store. And increasingly, employees download the Teams app as well.
Now your Office 365 data is on an unmanaged personal device and you don’t know if that device is secure or compromised….
Your company has no control over the employee’s device and no visibility of the Office 365. You can’t restrict actions such as copy/paste, save-as, open-in actions. This is a scary predicament.
BYOD 365 Balances Privacy and Security
Listen to Shane Sloan, Solutions Architect, explain how a balanced BYOD policy respects employees’ privacy while ensuring data security. Learn how our approach ensures adoption and give employees confidence that you are not interested in their personal apps and data.
