Working from home is a new 'norm' for many organizations, but the shift toward remote work has been steadily increasing for the past decade.
Whether mandatory or not, remote work can pose unwanted security concerns for an organization, so it's important to know how to be equipped to mitigate risk appropriately.
Remote work typically results in personal devices being used for work related activities or work devices being leveraged for personal use - where both are being run on substantially less secure networks.
In the context of remote work, it's imperative to equip users with simple and non-intrusive methods of security.
Remote workers must concurrently utilize the most advanced security tools so that their data and security stays healthy, too.
