Other survey highlights:

34% of the participants acknowledged they either "have no way of knowing" or "do not require" end users to inform them of security issues with employee-owned BYOD.
Three in 10 respondents were unaware or unable to discern whether BYOD security breaches impacted servers, mission critical apps or network operations.
32% said they either have no BYOD-specific security in place or don't know.

Recommendations from the report–titled "2014 State of Corporate Server, Desktop and BYOD Security Trends Survey""–include:

Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability testing. Include server hardware, server OS, application and network infrastructure to identify vulnerabilities and compare security across platforms.
Regularly review and update policies and procedures. Corporations should review and update their security policies annually at a minimum or as needed to address emerging technologies and trends like BYOD and mobility.
Perform due diligence. Become familiar with all specifics of the platform before beginning any new technology deployment (such as server hardware, application software, virtualization and cloud deployments.)
Ensure compliance. The ability to adhere to compliance standards and meet service-level agreements hinges on server security, reliability and uptime.
Estimate the cost of downtime. "Being able to affix a monetary cost to a security breach and assess the potential risk and damages that ensue in the wake of a security breach, will make the most cogent and compelling case for strong security mechanisms and security awareness training," ITIC and KnowBe4 said.
