Highlights

With wireless networking and mobile computing now at the center of the IT planning in enterprises and organizations large and small, a new set of important strategic questions are coming to light. Sure, they're convenient and cost-effective, but can wireless LANs really serve all corporate communications and networking functions? With so many staff bringing in their own handsets, tablets, and even PCs, what are the management and operational requirements related to this bring your own device (BYOD) trend? And what are the best practices for managing both information and staff in a highly-mobile environment? We examined these and other questions in this informative and fast-paced roundtable discussion.
