Cybersecurity in the Age of Remote Work
The Remote Work Security Landscape
With remote work becoming the norm, organizations face new cybersecurity challenges. Distributed endpoints and cloud services increase the attack surface.
Top Threats
- Phishing Attacks: Social engineering tricks employees into revealing credentials.
- Ransomware: Malware that encrypts data, demanding payment for recovery.
- Insider Threats: Accidental or malicious breaches by employees.
Best Practices to Stay Secure
- Implement Zero Trust architecture—never assume trust inside or outside the network.
- Regular patch updates for all devices and software.
- Mandatory multi-factor authentication (MFA).
- Conduct ongoing security training for staff.
Recommended Tools
- VPN solutions for secure remote access
- Endpoint detection and response (EDR) systems
- Cloud Access Security Brokers (CASB) for SaaS monitoring
