BYOD
As businesses are in the process of allowing employees to bring their personally owned computers, smartphones and tablets into the workplace and access corporate applications, the popularity of BYOD is increasing fast. This will allow application availability at anytime, from anywhere, and will help business slash procurement costs.
However, the increasing popularity of these devices will create several problems for IT departments as they attempt to mitigate risk, and this signals a tough future for the PC and laptop manufacturers. When it comes to BYOD, one of the most overriding threats is the loss and theft of these devices.

According to Edgar, BYOD and the explosion of data (especially video content) are causing many new challenges as the amount of data becomes too big to handle in terms of getting value from it and in defining a strategy. Enterprises will go back to the basics in 2014 and ask fundamental questions of their data center infrastructures as they look to deal with unprecedented data volumes: What are the objectives? Are we collecting the correct data? How can we use this to enable change in our business? Edgar states that companies which cannot answer these questions adequately will struggle in the next 12 months. Furthermore, he expects to see one or two significant cases of network shutdowns caused by data overload.
