With that in mind, here are some of the ways that COVID-19 has reshaped the threat landscape and where the new cybersecurity priorities lay.

Whereas IT organizations had been moving toward reliance on highly-trained cybersecurity experts to defend their pre-pandemic networks, they will now have to make sure all employees know how to keep business data and systems safe from inappropriate access no matter where they're working.

A Brave New World The reason it's clear that the three items mentioned here are certain to be central features of post-coronavirus cybersecurity planning is simple.

Small businesses, in particular, face major budgetary constraints that will make it hard for them to pivot toward these new security priorities.

The good news on that front is that the cybersecurity market should soon adjust to the new environment and start offering down-market solutions that help them adopt these new security norms.
