The Risk of A Privacy Breach through BYOD
Interesting post from Warwick Ryan, employment lawyer at Hicksons Lawyers talking about just how much risk is involved not managing employee's actions and activity that could lead to a privacy breach.
Privacy safeguards are put in place but are often not sufficient or fit for purpose. He raises the use by Directors, employees, and agents of personal mobile phone numbers for calls and SMS for work purposes. Organisations concerned about this can increase their compliance to the privacy act through the use of virtual company extensions for work purposes rather than personal mobile numbers delivering greater privacy and more.
