What Is the PRIMARY security concern associated with the practice known as Bring Your Own...

 The primary security concern with BYOD is the reduced level of control an organization has over employees’ personal devices compared to corporately owned and managed devices. This lack of control can lead to inconsistent security practices, such as irregular updates, lack of standardized security software, and potential for data leakage if the device is lost or compromised. BYOD policies must address these challenges by implementing security measures that protect corporate data while respecting users’ privacy on their personal devices123.
