Remote work security challenges for IT
Poor security practices and inadequate safeguards make an organization that encourages remote work a hunting ground for a threat actor. Typically, remote workers are the first to encounter security threats. They are also often the trigger for network security incidents that can quickly spread to the rest of the organization. Therefore, ensuring a secure, efficient and well-organized work environment for a remote workforce is the biggest concern for IT departments.
Lack of user awareness
Accessing through home or unsecure public networks
Use of personal devices (BYOD)
