I wonder how this is going to play out from a legal / privacy standpoint; particularly with reference to http://www.thebureauinvestigates.com/2012/08/21/us-government-buys-technology-to-monitor-employees/ [1] I wonder whether bringing one's own device might change the expectation of privacy of government employees. I would suspect that it does change the expectation of privacy, and we'll have to see where that goes - it could lead to some very interesting legal positions, if agencies assert that employees have no reasonable expectation of privacy on their own devices. -D On Tue 28/08/12 10:19 AM , "PeterK" [log in to unmask] sent: B Bring Your Own Device (“BYOD”) is the latest overnight IT sensation. But like most “overnight sensations” the foundational work took years before now familiar names “suddenly” hit the bright lights. In broader response to the ongoing Consumerization of Information Technology trend (“COIT”), no less than the Federal government has jumped on the BYOD bandwagon. http://bit.ly/Qt8r47 [2]">http://bit.ly/Qt8r47 Source: http://www.infolawgroup.com/2012/08/articles/byod/federal-cio-council-releases-byod-toolkit/ [3]">http://www.infolawgroup.com/2012/08/articles/byod/federal-cio-council-releases-byod-toolkit/ See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/Qt8r47 [4]">http://bit.ly/Qt8r47+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar [5]">http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html [6]">http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
