Should security let marketers bring their own devices (BYOD)?

Security & GRCBusiness Applications Strategy

Absolutely: the most important aspect of social media infosec is BYOD devices, which are extremely popular in marketing departments23%

Yes, but reluctantly: negotiating BYOD security is hard because employees are hesitant to hand over full MDM [mobile device management] control to their employers, and issuing company devices is costly and less efficient for employees57%

Definitely not: security should ensure that company staff do not use company accounts on their mobile devices if not allowed by security teams, as BYOD can lead to staff being targeted, and shared passwords could lead to staff accounts being hacked19%

Anomaly Detection / Mindbridge: We’re exploring tools that support continuous monitoring of financial transactions (e.g., inventory adjustments, journal entries, credit memos, disbursements) to help us identify anomalies earlier than our traditional periodic audits allow. We are a $20B company with 50+ different ERP systems globally (some data is mastered). Our goal is to enhance fraud detection and internal controls using modern, AI/ML analytics tools. We've started a vendor assessment process and MindBridge seems to be the only vendor that fairly fits the bill. I'd appreciate if someone can share any feedback/experience on the solution/vendor.
