Your Conditional Access setup is a strong baseline, but it mainly controls access, not how data is used.
To strengthen BYOD protection, combine it with a CASB like Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.

CA + CASB is a proven approach to protect org data on unmanaged Windows/macOS devices without requiring enrollment.
