Abstract: The increasing prevalence of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) practices in the workplace has posed significant challenges to organizations in terms of security and management. This paper presents a survey-based study aimed at exploring the adoption, implications, and security considerations associated with BYOD policies. The study utilized a questionnaire developed based on guidelines provided by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The primary objectives of this research are to investigate the cautiousness and awareness of BYOD users, as well as the effectiveness of security measures implemented by organizations, in order to gain insights into the key aspects of BYOD practices in the workplace. The findings of this paper highlight the need for increased caution among BYOD users regarding device security, a lack of knowledge among users about organizational security measures, and the potential for enhancing security policies and implementing additional measures despite organizations having achieved a satisfactory level of security for BYOD.
