Security News > 2021 > September > A zero-trust future: Why cybersecurity should be prioritized for the hybrid working world

Last year's sudden transition has created numerous cybersecurity challenges for businesses as they attempt to adjust to this new way of working.

Some of the new security challenges - both for employees and employers - include BYOD policies, sharing the same network with relatives or roommates, using the same devices for work and personal activities, VPN security issues and, of course, working from home with more distractions in our personal lives.

This approach supports the mutual needs of businesses and their employees for the present and future hybrid world of work.

When the network is under a heavy pressure load, zero trust is better equipped to perform, and therefore better suited for aiding organizations maintaining a hybrid working model.

The increased level of visibility offered by a zero-trust architecture helps organizations tackle many of the persistent security challenges mass remote working has created.

This is possible regardless of employee location, making zero trust the ideal model for a hybrid working world.
