New Years is a good time for updating your estate planning. If you have children this is really critical.
And …. IF you own a business this is really critical.
Both? Super critical.
Think you are too young to die?
Been on a highway recently? Heard of Covid?
BYOD = Bring Your Own Device
The smart phone is a major part of our business and personal life.
Two problems:
1. doing business comms on a personal phone
2. doing personal comms on a business phone
The degree of the problem depends on what kind of business you are doing. Is your business super sensitive, or is your business somewhat mundane-but-important?
Even the security experts at the FBI have gotten caught up in using official phones for very unofficial calls and texts.
Selling wholesale hardware is important but not sensitive. Doing medical or financial work is both sensitive and important.
IF you provide phones to employees, there should be a clear policy and procedure statement.
IF you allow employees to use their phones for business, there should be as clear policy and procedure statement.
And whatever you do should be enforced.
(Either way there is likely to be some crossover, people being people and all that - it is the big issues that matter.)
