Securing windows for BYOD
Is there a way to properly secure data on Windows BYOD devices? We are doing solution analysis for BYOD at our organisation and one thing that has come up is the Windows does not support the containerization that iOS and Android do where personal data is separated from business data. Furthermore, there is a risk that data e.g., the outlook data files can be exported out of windows.
Does it mean the virtual desktop is the only viable BYOD option?

For BYOD scenarios, it is recommended to utilise Windows Information Protection in conjunction with Microsoft Intune to safeguard corporate data, or to adopt cloud-based virtual desktops as a more secure solution.
