Cyber Security for Your Newly-Remote Workforce

Pandemic-driven remote work is shifting attitudes towards distributed teams, and will likely result in cost savings and major investments in supporting technology. Understanding the unique security concerns of a newly-distributed workforce requires new cybersecurity skills.

Organizations have scrambled to enable remote access to many business tools, and the cost of providing remote access to on-prem resources is significant. Cloud- and web-based business tools offer cost savings, as well as more reliable connectivity, shifting the paradigm from remote-as-exception to remote access as the norm.

  • How to mitigate the unique security concerns associated with a heterogeneous, distributed workforce
  • The importance of continuity and disaster recovery planning: What happens when a major business disruption occurs?
