Explanation

The primary business driver for adopting a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policy is cost reduction - the organization avoids purchasing, provisioning, and replacing employee hardware. Option B is incorrect because BYOD typically increases help desk ticket volume due to the diversity of device types, OS versions, and configurations. Option C is incorrect because BYOD is actually less secure than company-owned/managed device programs (COPE or COBO), since the organization has limited control over personal devices. Option D is incorrect because BYOD creates more administrative complexity, not less, due to the heterogeneous device ecosystem.
