解説

問 27

Incorrectア
Receiving wholesale-leased lines from a major telecommunications carrier and offering a communication service under one’s own brand is a description of an MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator); it is unrelated to BYOD, which refers to using private devices for work.
Incorrectイ
Showing lifelike imagery through goggles to heighten the sense of immersion is an example of VR (Virtual Reality); it has no relation to BYOD.
ウ
正解 BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) refers to a way of working in which employees bring their personally owned (private) information devices into the workplace and use them for work. Option ウ, ‘accessing the company’s server from a personal smartphone to use email and the scheduler,’ is precisely an example of putting a private device to work use and matches the definition of BYOD. The key point is that the company does not supply the devices; instead, employees use their own personal devices for business.
Incorrectエ
Attaching IC tags to library books to make collection management easier is an application of RFID (individual identification using IC tags); it does not fall under BYOD, which uses private devices for work.

ここがポイント

BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) is a way of working in which employees use their private information devices (smartphones, PCs, etc.) for work.
Distinguishing it from confusable terms: MVNO (a telecommunications business built on wholesale-leased lines), VR (virtual reality), and RFID / IC tags (contactless individual identification and inventory management) are all concepts separate from BYOD.
