BYOD in Higher Education

Missing Out on the Digital Revolution? 
Consider BYOD
The digital revolution is growing exponentially, and educators are under extreme pressure to take advantage of this phenomenon to enrich learning and increase student and staff productivity. However, the enormous burden to provide school-owned devices to students and staff at a time of tight budgets and limited resources, coupled with the need to offer a network that is ubiquitous in the face of security and student safety concerns, is challenging education institutions of all sizes. 


The BYOD Alternative  
A popular, more cost-effective, alternative for these institutions is the concept of “bring your own device” (BYOD), driven by the mainstream acceptance of unsecured mobility devices. One result of this overabundance of devices has been user demand to be given access to private, commercial wireless networks, including those found in the majority of today’s school systems. But access by these unsecured devices brings IT security issues with it:
  •          Ensuring secure access to the network
  •          Blocking the network from malware
  •          Scaling the network to accommodate requests
  •          Providing an optimal Wi-Fi experience

The HP BYOD Solution – the Industry’s Only Complete Solution
The solution consists of three principles:
  •         Simplify operations – implement new enhanced wireless tools like plug-and-play BYOD user management and unified network infrastructure
  •         Provide scalable operations – accommodate the upsurge in mobile devices seeking network access
  •         Secure the network – provide flexible access using granular policies and intrusion prevention through live quarantine

The HP approach Includes:
  •         Comprehensive management of user access that delivers device onboarding, provisioning, and monitoring
  •         Support for a multivendor environment with in-depth policy management
  •         Wireless access with enterprise-scale wireless infrastructure
  •         Continuous, optimized wireless experience for users
