Abstract :
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) security is the way to protect organization´s network against Variety of threats which come through mobile devices and access channels. This research paper explains the implementation of BYOD security solution in higher education institution in Oman. This security solution will help to protect the network data from unauthorized access, as well as, controlling unmanaged devices which are smartphones and mobile devices. This research will follow these steps starting with literature review, data collection, analysis, design the network structure with suggested solution and implementation for BYOD security solutions. As well as, monitoring the network performance with the implanted solutions to keep track if traffic flow with high availability and security. This research paper will help to facilitate the work to the network users through allowing BYOD as well as increase the network availability, ability and security through 802.1x, CA and RADius.
