Yeah, there are big differences in how IT security is handled in different organizations/sectors.  Some of it boils down to the culture of the organization.  

Our policy is personal devices go on the "wireless guest".  No personal devices on the production network.  The one main reason is for patching, updating, etc.  If we can't manage it, it doesn't go on the production network.

Generally speaking, I do think our security is probably on the more lax side of things since anyone can still plug anything into any port.  So many venders just come on-site and start connecting things without our knowledge, etc.
