A recent study by Bitglass revealed 69 percent of companies allow their employees to use their personal devices for work.

Many companies have embraced the bring-your-own-device (BYOD) concept, allowing their employees to utilise their personal mobile devices for business purposes. Workers using their own smartphones, laptops, or tablets to accomplish work-related tasks is an all-too-common sight in the modern workplace. In fact, a recent study by Bitglass revealed 69 percent of companies allow their employees to use their personal devices for work, viewing it as a positive addition to any workplace policy. Allowing your staff to use their own devices results in increased work hours from employees, reduced costs, more flexibility, and greater employee satisfaction. Mobile devices are part of the ever-evolving office.

While many of the ways we do business have changed, one constant remains: the need to print. With so much work being done on our mobile devices, it only makes sense that we have the ability to efficiently and securely print the documents and files we need directly from them. That’s why mobile printing is a necessity for the modern business. With a standard mobile printing solution in place, employees will have the convenience of printing from any device at any time—no matter where they’re physically located—as well as the ability to capture and share documents both internally and externally. 

While mobile printing is obviously beneficial for businesses, a BYOD-friendly workplace does present a new set of risks. Namely, the security challenges posed when you have employees working with sensitive information on their own devices. The flexibility and convenience mobile devices provide comes with a flipside in the form of threats, such as phishing scams, malware, network attacks, and app leakages. These security flaws must be countered to ensure the integrity of your sensitive data. This can be accomplished through a comprehensive BYOD policy and a high-tech mobile printing solution that includes effective security measures to protect your data.

Mobile printing is an innovative solution that can dramatically increase productivity in the modern workplace. Paired with effective security measures to mitigate the risks associated with BYOD, your business can reap these rewards while maintaining data integrity and peace of mind.
