Abstract
Organizations face new and growing security challenges as consumer technology continues to be integrated into organizational workflows. Bring your own device (BYOD) is a phenomenon that is here to stay; however, securing employee’s personally owned devices may require the organizations to consider exerting some control over the employee’s device. In order for organizations to secure access to their sensitive information in this way, they must first garner the employee’s consent. This research seeks to model employee acceptance of employer control by constructing a model of employee acceptance based upon the extant acceptance literature. Once a model has been created it is operationalized into several measures and verified using a quantitative survey methodology.
