Securing Your Remote Workforce: How To Reduce Cyber Threat
Security Intelligence, April 18th, 2023
The debates have (mostly) stopped about whether remote work is here to stay. For many people, it's just the way we work today. However, even three years later, cybersecurity around remote work is still a top concern.
Both companies and employees have room for improvement in terms of protecting devices, data and apps from cybersecurity threats when working remotely.
In addition to remote working causing new vulnerabilities to attacks, breaches involving remote work are more costly. The IBM Cost of a Data Breach 2022 Report found that around the globe, remote working increased the average cost of a breach by nearly $1 million. Breaches in the U.S. with remote working cost $600,000 more than the global average.
