Securing the Remote Workforce

Although it’s been a growing trend in business circles over the past decade, the subject of remote work has become an increasingly important topic for businesses since early 2020. The increased availability of portable, inexpensive and highly capable computing and communications technology combined with nearly ubiquitous internet availability means employees no longer need to be constrained within the confines of a corporate office to get their work done using a company’s systems and data. For many workers, all that is needed is a mobile phone or laptop and access to a local internet access point and they have an office, whether that’s in a company building, at home, in a neighborhood café or at a tropical resort.
