How to improve the cybersecurity of your remote workers
2020-10-13 16:10

Based on a survey, a report released Tuesday by security provider Keeper Security looks at the types of threats aimed at organizations with remote workers and offers advice on how to better protect your workforce.

Around 22% of them had remote workers; now around 58% of them maintain a remote workforce.

Some 71% of those surveyed said that remote workers put the organization at risk for data breaches, while 57% said that such workers are prime targets for cybercriminals looking to exploit various vulnerabilities.

Only 45% of those surveyed said their organization's security budget is sufficient for handling cybersecurity risks caused by remote workers.

Educate remote workers on how to recognize unusual or suspicious activity on devices being used for remote working and then contact your organization's help desk or security center to report the activity.
