“Is BYOD Right For Your Hospital?”
Bringing your own mobile device (BYOD) to the workplace, once considered a radical departure for Information Technology departments, is commonplace today.

Given the highly sensitive data managed by hospitals, security is perhaps the number one reason that healthcare, with HIPAA requirements and the over-arching concern for maintaining patient privacy, has been slower to embrace BYOD than other industries. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to BYOD, but there are some basic questions and concerns, outlined in this white paper, that hospital CIOs must consider and vet for their own institutions before making the leap.
