100% agree, and fingerprinting BYOB devices would be problematic in a lot of ways.

I'm generally against BYOD programs. They're convenient but usually come from a place of allowing employees access to things without the willingness to take on the cost (both in corp devices and inconvenience of a second phone/tablet/whatever) to run them with a high level of assurance.

Much better in my opinion to use something like PagerDuty or text/push notifications to prompt folks to check a corp device if they have alerts/new emails/whatever.
