DaaS, BYOD, leasing and buying: Which is better for cybersecurity?
2020-09-22 05:00

Still, leasing is beneficial because rather than jeopardizing cybersecurity to purchase large volumes of hardware, enterprises can rent fully covered devices.

Comparable to DaaS providers, leasing companies are responsible for device maintenance and have to ensure that every laptop, phone, and tablet has the appropriate security software.

Purchasing hardware outright means companies have complete control over devices and can cherry-pick cybersecurity features to include.

In contrast, providers from DaaS and leasing models expertly wipe devices at the end of contracts or when disposing of them, so enterprises don't have to be concerned about unauthorized access.

Despite all the perks, it has to be acknowledged that BYOD and leasing pose the biggest obstacles for enterprises because they take cybersecurity monitoring and control out of companies' hands.
