Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) – “Angel or Demon”: A Conceptual Review

Abstract

Bring your own device (BYOD) is a way to connect employee devices to the organization's network for routine tasks. The idea was developed for many purposes in the early 20th century. It offers incentives to workers and organizations in various fields. However, this concept delivers its upsides and downsides in various field. The benefits and drawbacks vary by domain area. This study aims to analyze past studies' literature to recognize the ups and downs of various domains. a systemic literature review approach has been taken to perform the review. Besides, a proper and standard guideline was adopted and proposed for this systematic analysis. This study also aims to develop a conceptual solution. The sensitive data of the organization is not secure when an employee deals with BYOD. When they work with their own devices, an organization's data is stored in their devices, so a higher chance of the possibility of leakage or loss. The only emerging and sophisticated approach to solving this problem is cloud computing, along with cellphone jammer and autocratic leadership, which is a triple constraints concept, proposed for effectively utilizing the BYOD. The same concept can be extended to primary and secondary schools; and event to conduct the exams also.
