AnythingIT Releases Informative White Paper Regarding Bring Your Own Device - Solutions for End of Life Recycling

AnythingIT, Inc. (OTCBB: ANYI), a leading information technology
end of life recycler and E-Waste handler serving both government
and commercial markets, today announced the release of a new white
paper, BYOD EOL (Bring Your Own Device - Solutions for End of Life)
to give corporate management and Information Technology (IT)
providers details of solutions available for adopting both
bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies and end of life (EOL)
recycling and secure disposal options.
Worldwide tablet shipments are expected to reach 60 million this
year, estimates market research firm IHSiSuppli. Consumer
Intelligence Research Partners says that 21 percent of the latest
iPad devices are being used for work and business use of these
devices has surpassed uses for social networking, email, and
reading. Given those numbers, AnythingIT President David Bernstein
became concerned that businesses adopting BYOD policies were faced
with a lack of informational resources for both building secure
policies for BYOD as well as intelligent policies for EOL
management.
"We commissioned this informative white paper to help business
leaders understand the benefits and unique issues behind
bring-your-own-device policies," says Bernstein. "Furthermore, once
these devices have completed their life cycle or are to be pushed
aside for an upgrade, businesses could face security issues as well
as environmental concerns should those devices not be properly
handled through a well-crafted end-of-life plan."
With a recent Citrix survey showing 25 percent of enterprises,
small and medium-sized businesses supporting the use of personal
devices for business purpose but only 67 percent of them having
policies in place, the need became clear. Several surveys show
productivity increases when BYOD policies allow the use of personal
devices, however, the growth trend towards adopting this idea is
clear.
"With all of these concerns and the growing acceptance and
adoption of BYOD in business," says Bernstein, "AnythingIT believed
that clear guidance to help solve not only the issues inherent in
BYOD for businesses, but also the very critical EOL solutions was
paramount. With most of the available information focusing on
security rather than recycling, it became clear that AnythingIT was
in a unique position to provide answers. Businesses can profit both
financially from BYOD as well as in public relations with hosted
collection events and recycling programs."
The fact-filled paper from AnythingIT covers not only an
overview of the BYOD and EOL issues involved for business, but
details data security concerns and measures as well as green,
eco-friendly EOL programs that not only bolster both corporate
image and brand, but also encourage employees to recycle and even
allow for philanthropy.
