The bring your own device (BYOD) doctrine is bringing with it a lot of changes to the corporate landscape, from new potential benefits to businesses to new potential hazards. While some of the risks may be remote, and some of the rewards tough to measure, there's still quite a bit of value going on in here, and that's got businesses taking a closer look at outfitting employees with employees' own devices.
