BYOD (bring your own device) has always looked better on paper than it does in real life. The promise is clear: let people use the gadgets they already own. Less friction, lower costs, and more freedom. But when security and privacy are non-negotiable, the conversation around BYOD usually ends quickly. Not because BYOD is a bad idea, but because the model behind it doesn’t quite work. With BYOD, you’d be trying to secure something that isn’t meant to be trusted.
