NIST Cybersecurity Framework Implementing BYOD Security Best Practices | AI Podcast

Many organizations are adopting Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies to offer employees flexibility and reduce hardware costs. However, integrating personal devices into a work environment presents inherent security and privacy challenges. This video explores the complexities of BYOD security using practical guidance from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

In this video, you will:

● Learn about the common security and privacy risks associated with BYOD, including data leakage, unauthorized access, and compliance challenges.
● Examine a detailed, step-by-step example solution from NIST that demonstrates how to enhance the security of BYOD deployments using commercially available products.
● Understand the core components of this solution: mobile device management (MDM), mobile threat defense, application vetting, secure boot and image authentication, and a virtual private network (VPN).
● Gain insights into how to tailor NIST's risk management framework to develop a BYOD security strategy that aligns with your organization's specific needs and risk tolerance.
● Discover the importance of the NIST Mobile Threat Catalogue and its role in identifying and categorizing mobile threats, using specific codes (like APP-2 or STA-9) to illustrate various types of threats organizations should be aware of.

This video is for you if:

● You are a business leader or IT professional responsible for making decisions about BYOD policies and security.
● You are a security engineer or administrator tasked with implementing and managing a secure BYOD environment.
● You are interested in learning about best practices and practical solutions for mitigating the security and privacy risks associated with BYOD.
