For businesses and it's just go to practice -- -- an organization -- we -- yourself Cisco took -- -- Customers so we're talking about Smartphones electronic devices on computers and things like that it is trying to bring them out to their personal your -- won the -- by personally.
To the office to use of essentially as your office computer.
Or vice right and who.
What itself little bit about when it how recent industry what.
I think it's been going on for years essentially but.
The devices they become more more complex but they can run more applications and you can have more use for them.
So that's the real interest in partisan as they become more useful to the to the person actually using it and it has a -- -- for.
So the integration of the device into the business applications has become -- very very.
Big big business.
Right I think I'm on each.
I don't I don't -- -- as the let's get a little feel sort of break it down here let's see -- would be -- pros for the employee you bring your Smartphone to rocker here in your own computer.
You know it's your device where you can use it I definitely wanted to write what else so.
You -- to win every one you can it'll just mean you have one device you know if you have your own personal advice and then you go to work and then they give -- another device because it will benefit -- kind of walking around that would stimulate their Blackberry and I.
I you have a whole chest of things.
So it's really good -- simplify that.
And if you can use the same device they use anyway you all your information is there your contacts whether it's personal -- business it gives you have an easier way to be communicated to.
You don't want him anywhere flyers.
Picked up some of the costs is that typical the typical that employers -- pick up some of the costs associated to the device and that -- it's a shared expense the benefit that the benefit is both the business and the employee okay let's talk.
What about benefits for dean business specifically.
You.
So and so that that there's lots of benefits the business then you have your easier to get ahold of you are probably working morning and -- -- out there.
You're probably working more than forty hour work week if you have a communication device that also has access to your systems and your and your technology and contacts list in your messaging.
It just makes you more accessible and -- them from the business perspective you know the forty hour work week is -- -- right so there's all sorts of value there as well.
-- let's talk about the -- your device this is a very -- I think for most people.
You -- device is going to be monitored so -- You know I I have a lot of friends who walked around -- -- it.
You know what he and they got their Blackberry for work like an -- He's doing it but yeah they put that aside division with fortunately they tried to hit president got their iPhone four are you -- -- -- for -- regular life and he.
They don't have the option instead of answering and they did not answering the phone and I guess if you've.
My guess you have the option either way right -- you -- you -- -- -- call coming in you could determine.
There's a lot of flexibility for the employee.
As well and in relation assists 2 o'clock in the afternoon and Friday wanna go pick up the kids to school go -- if something is important is coming and you know what -- device can go.
But back and wait till I get back my home officer or whenever.
So there's there's a lots of there's a lot to benefit there president is that there's security concerns about it right that's about -- yeah -- yeah.
So you do have to be that as an individual user or owner of the device and if you start to bring -- to corporation to utilize it.
The company now has some stake in it so what they're concerned about is real stuff like business information you don't want.
As as -- as a corporation you don't want your business information to go out to the general public so.
There are some essentially writes there with so really the rule is don't.
Don't put things on their that you don't want other people have access to receive.
And not call goes down -- your personal beliefs.
So.
Yeah good luck and I need people you know what you easiest thing that you're gonna do that you're good -- -- yourself but you can't help attacks people and you rent -- accused -- -- that seems to be the track thanks for joining us -- if you're very welcome.
