| Summary: | Bring your own device (B)'OD) concept is a recent and growing trend in
most organizations, where employees are allowed to access the organization's
network using their own devices. It has important features which provide
convenience and ease of use to employees, while the organizations allow
their employees to be as productive as possible. On the other hand.
organizations may save the costs of purchasing and maintaining such assets.
However, allowing personal mobile devices to access the organization
network may carry security risks in the organizations and increase the
chances of' cvber attacks. It is difficult to trust these devices with access to
specific proprietary information. Although many researchers have developed
several models for security policies for BYOD, these policies adopted in most
organizations are vague and generally immature. Thus, this research proposes
the security framework for BYOD as a solution that enhances the security in
organization without compromising the usability and flexibility of the system.
The methods used in this research are systematic literature review and
qualitative research approach. Systematic literature review method was
chosen in this research to address the current state of security policies that is
needed to secure BYOD. While the qualitative method is used to evaluate
BYOD security framework. The proposed framework uses two layers of
security controls which are device control and BYOD server. By this
framework the organizations can reduce the emerging attacks of using mobile
devices and increase the level of security. |
