IT consumerization is a phrase used to describe a change in information technology (IT) that begins in the consumer market and moves into business and government facilities.
It has become common for employees to bring devices to the consumer market in the workplace once they have adopted this new technology at home – which has happened with Wi-Fi.
In the early days of Wi-Fi (2000-2005), most companies did not provide wireless access to the corporate network due to the limited wireless security options available at the time. This lack of security, along with the general distrust of the unknown, has made it common for companies to avoid deploying Wi-Fi networks.
