Bring your own cloud(BYOC) is a movement whereby corporate employees and departments are allowed to use their own personal clouds or a combination of private and public third party cloud services to carry out their tasks and jobs.
Benefits of BYOC
BYOC provides the employees the flexibility to store and retrieve important data and information like documents, videos, images, etc using a variety of available cloud options. Smaller or mid size organizations find it more beneficial to allow their employees to use freely available cloud services. This is understandable as a free public or private cloud services significantly reduces the capital and operational cost that IT services entail.
Downside of Using BYOC
The biggest downsides of using bring your own cloud hosting services is the lack of control organizations have over such services. The use of such services can often pose security and compliance concerns in the workplace as business owners are unaware of where the business information is stored, who has access to it and for what purpose it is being used.
Businesses however can negate the security and compliance threats associated with BYOC by implementing strict procedural guidelines. Employees must be made to understand that BYOC is specifically to be used for work related tasks and the organization must be immediately notified, as and when the personal cloud service is used.
