Since many employees have moved outside of the network perimeter, whether by using mobile devices or working from a home or remote environment organizations have lost visibility into a large percentage of their business network traffic.

With a fully remote workforce, many organizations have been forced to make choices between usability and security.

The United States Department of Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and the United Kingdom's National Cyber Security Centre recently issued a joint alert noting an increase in cyberattacks exploiting VPN vulnerabilities.

For personal devices used for remote work under a BYOD policy, the line between privacy and security becomes blurrier.
