Improving Security For Remote Work With Security Service Edge
Cisco News, April 20th, 2023
Hybrid work is here to stay. According to the 2022 Cisco Global Hybrid Work Study, more than 90% of respondents will work remotely at least part time in the future. In many organizations, however, remote workers are left with fewer security protections than those on the corporate network, and attackers have taken notice.
One of the largest breaches in the past year was at LastPass, and it involved an attack on a remote user. While our intent is not to sensationalize a company's data breach, the attack is a useful model to study how threat actors are targeting remote workers in the wild. This post will focus on the tactics and techniques used by the attacker and how security service edge (SSE) can help you protect your users from similar threats.
